In accordance with the chranological arrangement adopted by 
us in the publication of the Oxyrhynchus Papyri, the present volume 
is devoted to second century texts, with the exception of the theo- 
logical and some of the classical papyri. The selection of documents 
here published in full or described probably represents less thar half 
the second century material discovered in 1897, but it is our intention 
in future volumes to deal with successive centuries up to the sixth, 
and then to return to the older papyri temporarily passed over. 
In the spring of this year excavations at Oxyrhynchus were resumed, 
and another large find of papyri was made, including a certain number 
of the late Ptolemaic period. These, together with a selection of 
the more important literary texts from the new find, will be published 
in Part IV, which we hope to issue within a year, 

In proportion to the space in the present-volume occupied by 
the literary fragments our debt is the greater to Professor Blass, 
to whom is due the identification of several of the classical pieces, 
and to a large extent their reconstruction, together with many 
suggestions in the commentary. Mr. J. G. Smyly has rendered us 
much assistance, especially in connexion with questions of ancient 
mathematics; the help which we have received on special points 
from other scholars is acknowledged in connexion with the individual 


papyri.

NOTE ON THE METHOD OF PUBLICATION AND 
LIST OF ABBREVIATIONS 


IN the following pages the same general method is followed as in preceding 
volumes. Of the new literary texts a few are printed in a dual form, a recon- 
struction in modern style being appended to a literal transcript. In most other 
cases, as well as in the fragments of extant authors, the originals are reproduced 
except for division of words, addition of capital initials to proper names, expan- 
sion of abbreviations, and supplements, so far as possible, of lacunae. In 418, 
however, accentuation and punctuation have been introduced for the sake of 
greater clearness, and this system has also been adopted with the majority of 
the literary fragments in the ‘miscellaneous’ section (IV). Additions or 
corrections by the same hand as the body of the text are in small thin type, 
those by a different hand in thick type. Non-literary texts are given in modern 
. Style only. Abbreviations and symbols are resolved, the latter being all of 
the common kind. Additions and corrections are usually incorporated in the 
text and their occurrence is recorded in the critical notes; in the few instances 
where it was desirable to reproduce alterations in the original, a later hand is 
distinguished, as in the literary texts, by thick type. Faults of orthography, &c., 
are corrected in the critical notes wherever any difficulty could arise. Jota 
adscript is printed when so written, otherwise iota subscript is used. Square 
brackets [ ] indicate a lacuna, round brackets ( ) the resolution of a symbol or 
abbreviation, angular brackets { ) a mistaken omission in the original ; double 
square brackets [[ |] mean that the letters within them have been deleted in 
the original, braces { }, that the letters so enclosed, though actually written, 
should be omitted. Dots placed within brackets represent the approximate 
number of letters lost or deleted. Dots outside brackets indicate mutilated 
or otherwise illegible letters. Letters with dots underneath them are to be con- 
sidered doubtful. Heavy Arabic numerals refer to the texts of the Oxyrhynchus 
papyri published in this volume and in Parts I-II ; ordinary numerals to lines ; 
small Roman numerals to columns.

I. THEOLOGICAL FRAGMENTS 


401. St. Matruews Gospe., III. 


7X95 CM. 


THESE few verses from the end of the first and the beginning of the second 
chapter of the Gospel according to St. Matthew are contained on part of a leaf 
from a vellum book. Unless the text was in double columns, which would make 
the book a very unlikely shape, the leaves were- unusually small in size; for 
though the columns are incomplete at both top and bottom only two or three 
lines are missing between the last line of the verso and the first of the recto. The 
handwriting, which is in well-formed slightly sloping uncials of medium size, may 
be assigned to the fifth or sixth century. It is somewhat faded, and a second 
hand has here and there rewritten letters and lectional signs with a darker ink, 
besides correcting mistakes made by the original scribe, who was not very careful. 
To judge from this fragment, the text followed by the MS. was a good one, 
having affinities with the Codex Sinaiticus. We give a collation with the text 
of Westcott and Hort and with the Textus Receptus.

8X 5:2 cm. 


A fragment of a leaf from a papyrus book, written in a clear semi-uncial 
hand towards the end of the fourth or in the fifth century, and containing part 
of 1 John iv. 11-7. The usual contractions found in biblical MSS. occur, and 
a horizontal stroke at the end of lines is used apparently to indicate abbrevia- 
tions. The text is curiously corrupt, considering its early date, and bears 
evidence of extremely careless copying.

408. APpocaLypse oF Barucnu, XII-XIV. 
I4 X11 cm. Prats I (recto). 


Of the numerous theological works of an Apocalyptic character composed 
shortly before or after the beginning of the Christian era, one of the most 
interesting is the Apocalypse of Baruch, which like many other apocryphal works 
is preserved only in a translation from the Greek. To the recovery of a con- 
siderable fragment of the Greek original of the Ascension of [satah (P. Amh. I. 1), 
previously known in its entirety only from the Ethiopic version, now succeeds 
a small fragment of the Apocalypse of Baruch in the language from which 
the extant Syriac translation is derived, though whether the Greek text is itself 
derived from Hebrew is disputed. Prof. Charles, who has published the latest 
and fullest edition of that Apocalypse, is strongly in favour of a Hebrew original,

4 THE OXYRHYNCHUS PAPYRI 


but his reasons are not very convincing, and the present fragment illustrates the 
precarious character of arguments based on retranslations into a supposed original 
through a version which is itself not extant. 

The papyrus is part of a leaf from a book, written in brown ink in a large 
slightly sloping uncial hand of a moderately early Byzantine type, probably 
not later than the fifth century, and perhaps as early as the end of the fourth. 
The high point is frequently used, and there is a tendency to increase the size 
of the initial letters of lines. The text, so far as can be judged from the very 
imperfect condition of the lines preserved, is not very good ; one certain error 
(uaprupjoavres for dpaprycavres in 1. 28) of the first hand has been corrected 
by another person, and peonufSpla is mis-spelt peceuSpla in 1. 4. The curious 
tendency to omit the definite article (cf. ll. 16 and 24), which produces a certain 
harshness, is, however, not likely to be due to the scribe. But in spite of its 
smallness the fragment is of much interest as affording for the first time a direct 
opportunity of testing the fidelity of the Syriac translation. The impression 
created by a comparison of the two versions is that the Syriac translator was 
much less accurate than, for instance, the Ethiopic translator of the Ascension of 
Isaiah. In one passage (Il. 6-8) he has expanded the three verbs of the Greek 
into six by adding a synonym in each case. In another he seems to have 
misapprehended the meaning of the Greek, and to have introduced an idea 
which is quite inappropriate to the context (cf. note on Il. 25-7). 

The references at the side of the text and the translation of the Syriac 
version are taken from the edition of Prof. Charles, whom we have to thank for 
several suggestions in the reconstruction of the fragment. The first ten lines 
of the verso are the conclusion of a prophecy of Baruch against Babylon 
(i.e. Rome). The recto is part of a prophecy against the Gentiles by ‘a voice 
from the height,’ and is a passage which has caused commentators much difficulty, 
but which the Greek helps to explain.

prospering. Not always does the noonday burn, nor do the rays of the sun constantly

give light.’ The Syriac here agrees verbally with the Greek, for the equivalent of rd 
&nvexés which is translated as an adjective by Prof. Charles, who supplies ‘always’ with 
the verb, is, as the Greek shows, to be constructed adverbially. 

6-8. ‘And do not thou expect to rejoice, nor condemn greatly.’ The Syriac has 
‘Do not conclude or expect that thou wilt always be prosperous and rejoicing, and be not 
greatly uplifted and do not oppress’ (the last verb emended by Prof. Charles to ‘be not 
boastful’), thus duplicating all the three verbs of the Greek, but no doubt wrongly. 
xaradixal ae is equally possible in ll. 7-8. 

8-10. ‘For assuredly in its season the wrath will be awakened against thee which 
now is restrained by long-suffering as it were by a rein.’ This agrees with the Syriac. 
Prof. Charles translates ‘which now in long-suffering ...’; but the traces before paxpo- 
6uy{cas are incompatible with ev, the second letter being either s or e. 

10-6. ‘And having said these things I fasted seven days. And it came to pass 
after this that I, Baruch, was standing upon Mount Zion, and lo! a voice came forth 
from the height and said to me “Stand upon thy feet, Baruch, and hear the word of 
the mighty God.”’ Here too the Syriac shows no variation. For the omission of the 
definite article before wyvpou cf. 1. 24 xatpor rafecs. 

18, on: the first letter may be oc, and the second » but not r. The Syriac version 
of vv. ro—1 has ‘ They were therefore chastened then that they might receive mercy. But 
now, ye peoples and nations, ye are debtors because all this time ye have trodden down 
the earth, and used the creation unrighteously.’ 

21-2. ‘For ye were always being benefited but were always ungrateful.’ The Syriac 
has ‘ For I have always benefited you and ye have always denied the beneficence,’ which 
differs by the introduction of the first person, and the use of an active instead of a passive 
verb in the first half of the sentence. Prof. Charles notes that the order of the words 
in the Syriac is unusual, and a corruption may be suspected. 

23~5. ‘And I answered and said “ Behold, thou hast shown me the methods of the 
times and that which will be.”’ The Syriac differs slightly by having a singular word for 
rages and by inserting ‘after these things’ after ‘ will be.’ 

25—4. It is clear that the Greek and Syriac here diverged from each other. The 
Syriac has ‘and thou hast said unto me that the retribution which was spoken of by thee 
will be of advantage to the nations.’ As Prof. Charles acutely remarks, the idea of 
a remedial chastisement of the Gentiles seems out of place, and something is probably 
wrong with the Syriac text. The verb found in the Greek, drevex6ncera, does not suggest 
anything like ‘be of advantage to, and taken in conjunction with wpaés the meaning 
‘endured’ is in every way more satisfactory. Of the two doubtful letters at the beginning 
of 1. 26 the second could be s, », or s, but the first, if not v, can only be p, and py or 
plo is very intractable, while a compound of ¢épw is required. The phrase ‘will be 
of advantage to,’ to which Prof. Charles objected, may therefore be regarded as an error 
of the Syriac translator. In some other respects Prof. Charles seems to us to have 
slightly exaggerated the inconsistencies in chapters x—xiv; cf. p. 24 of his edition. xa:pa» 
rages does not seem an impossible description of the prophecy in ch. xiii, and if ‘the 
retribution spoken of by thee’ is first mentioned by the cities, not by God, nevertheless 
it occurs in a speech put by the ‘voice from the height’ into the mouth of the ‘ pros- 
perous cities,’ of whom the abrupt mention (cf. :d:2 p. 22) is not so very surprising 
after a section devoted to Babylon and the ‘land which is prospering.’ 

27-32. The Syriac has ‘And now I know that those who have sinned are many 
and they have lived in prosperity and departed from the world, but that few nations 
will be left in those times to whom those words shall be said which thou didst say.’ 
The Greek does not materially differ. In |. 27 there is room for a word not expressed 


404. THEOLOGICAL FRAGMENTS 7 


in the Syriac, but pe» (corresponding to oArya 8 in 1. 30) would perhaps be sufficient. 
A phrase meaning ‘in prosperity’ is required at the end of |. 28; but it is difficult to find 
a word short enough if o is the article, so it should perhaps be regarded as the relative, 
when there will be no need for xa. The erroneous reading of the first hand paprupyoarres 
is corrected to apaprycavres by a different writer who used much blacker ink. In 1. 31 
AexOnoorra is rather too long for the lacuna. Perhaps epec res. 

32~3. The Syriac has ‘ For what advantage is there in this or what (evil) worse than 
what we have seen befall us are we to expect to see?’ 


404. SHEPHERD OF HERMAS. 


Fr. (c) 7-8 x 5-3 cm. Prate IV (Fr. (c) recto). 


Three fragments of a leaf from a papyrus book, inscribed on both sides in 
a sloping uncial hand of the late third or fourth century, the surface of the verso 
being much damaged. No line is complete, and indeed very few complete words 
are preserved, so that all the greater credit is due to Mr. V. Bartlet for recog- 
nizing the scraps as belonging to the lost Greek ending of the Shepherd of 
Hermas (Szmil. x. 3. 3—4. 3). They thus form a useful supplement to P. Amh. 
190, Fr. (4) verso, another papyrus fragment of the missing Greek portion of the 
same work, and demonstrate with equal clearness that Simonides’ version of the 
last leaf of the Athos codex was a forgery; cf. P. Amh. 190 introd. 

The text of the present papyrus seems to have differed in many points of 
detail from those which were the basis of the extant translations of the last 
chapters of the Szmzlztudines, and only a few lines on the recto can be restored 
with any approach to certainty,.while the verso is for the most part illegible. 
Fragments (a) and (4) all but join each other; but there seems to be a narrow 
lacuna between the bottom of Fr. (4) and the top of Fr. (c), causing the loss of 
a whole line on the recto. In Fr.(c) the ends of Il. 18-22 are preserved, and since 
these are by no means even the number of letters lost at the ends of Il. 11-17 
may vary from o—3. We have reconstructed Il. 15-21 on the hypothesis that 
about 11 letters are lost at the beginnings. From the lines of breakage in 
Frs. (a) and (4) it is probable that the lacunae at the end of Il. 4-8 are of the 
same size as those in Il. 11-17, and that the lacunae at the beginning of Il. 2-6 
correspond to those at the beginnings of Il. 15-22. 

We are indebted to Mr. V. Bartlet for several suggestions in the reconstruction 
of the fragments. |

considerably ; not only is the plural (evoyos) found in place of the singular (reus), but the 
remains of |. 40 do not in the least support anything like magnum peccatum admitht. 
Apparently the papyrus omitted that phrase and in its stead had a participial phrase 
depending upon the preceding words which is not represented in the translations. - of 
yew[ovra: has been corrected, probably from 8 or 8. 


10 | THE OXYRHYNCHUS PAPYRI 


405-406. THEOLOGICAL FRAGMENTS. 
Pirate I (406 and 406 verso). 


We here group together fragments of two different theological works, 
which we have not been able to identify, both containing quotations from the 
New Testament. 

406 consists of seven fragments written in a small neat uncial hand, which 
is not later than the first half of the third century, and might be as old as the 
latter part of the second. The ordinary contractions 6s, Xs, ms occur ; and it is 
- clear that the use of these goes back far into the second century. Besides its 
early date (it is probably the oldest Christian fragment yet published), 406 is 
interesting on account of a quotation from St. Matthew iii. 16-7 describing the 
Baptism, which is indicated by wedge-shaped signs in the margin similar to 
those employed for filling up short lines, e.g. in Fr.(a) ll. g and 13. 

406 is part of a leaf from a papyrus book and contains the quotation from 
Isaiah vi. 10 also found in Matthew xiii. 15 and Acts xxviii. 27. The citation 
‘appears here in its New Testament form, omitting the airéy after dcly found 
in the LXX version. The large and upright uncial hand is comparable with 
that of 25 and 224 and is probably to be assigned to the third century. Besides 
the ordinary contractions we have eorpvos for éoravpwpévos in |. 21.

16-22. Owing to the number of variations in the text of this passage (Matt. iii. 16-7) 
and the irregularities of the papyrus with regard to the ends of lines, as shown by Col. i, 
some of the restorations are rather doubtful. Both oupavos in |. 14 and ovpavwy in |. 18 
may have been contracted. In |. 16, if wvevpa was written out in full, ré and rov, which 
are omitted by SN and B, may have been also omitted by the papyrus; and that kai, 
which is found in some MSS. before ¢pyéuerov, was not in the papyrus is fairly certain. 
The supplement in 1. 17 is rather short. The only known variant which would be longer 
is wpés for én’, found in several cursives. In |. 19 there is certainly not room for the best- 
attested reading ofrdés dori» 6 vids pou 6 dyannrés: either the papyrus agreed with D in 
reading ov ef for otrds dori, or else 6 vids pou was omitted or placed after ayamnrds.

408. Ones or PInDaR. 


Fr. (2) 13X15 cm. Prats II. 


Four fragments of a lyric work in Pindaric dialect written in medium-sized 
_uncials, with a few corrections and marginal notes in various hands. On the 
verso are some money accounts in a second century cursive. The writing on 
the recto, which bears much resemblance to that of the semi-uncial contracts 
from Oxyrhynchus of the Domitian-Trajan period (e. g. 270), belongs to the early 
part of the second century or even to the end of the first. Sub-divisions of the 
poem are indicated by paragraphi, while an elaborate coronis apparently marks 
the beginning of a new poem, as in the Bacchylides papyrus; the high stop is 
employed, and occasional breathings, accents, and marks of elision and quantity 
occur. Fragment (4) probably belongs to the second column of fragment (a), 
and since this arrangement accounts for forty-eight lines in this column, it is 
unlikely that more than two or three, if any, lines are lost between those two 
fragments. The position of fragments (c) and (d) is obscure. 


14 THE OXYRHYNCAUS ,PAPYRI 


The authorship of the piece is made certain, as was perceived by Blass, 
by the correspondence of the last line of fragment (4) jv deAquvos va{ with the 
beginning of Pindar, Fr. 235 (Christ), a quotation in Plut. Quaest. Symp. vii. 
5. 2 (cf. De soll. anim. 36) of a passage in which the poet compares himself 
to a dolphin:—6 Ilvdapds gyot xexiwvicbat mpds pdyv adlov dieAdivos indxprow Tov 
pev axvpovos mdévrov ey meAdyer atdAdv exlynoey épardy pédos. Another extant 
Pindaric fragment (200) occurs in Il. 58-9; cf. note ad Joc. Dismissing the first 
twenty-two lines, of which the merest fragments remain, we have in Il. 23-42 
most of the last antistrophe and in Il. 43-54 part of the last epode of one poem, 
and in Il. 54-69 part of the first strophe of the next. The subject of the anti- 
strophe, which has suffered much damage through the obliteration of the ink 
in the latter parts of several lines, is the vengeance taken by Heracles upon 
Laomedon. Though the general thread of the construction in ll. 23-35 has yet 
to be discovered, their restoration is a by no means hopeless undertaking, for 
the vestiges of letters in the effaced parts are generally sufficient to verify the 
right conjectures when they are made. The second poem has in the margin at 
the beginning traces of what seems to have been its title, but these are too slight 
to give a clue to the subject. The first strophe contains an interesting tribute 
by Pindar to one of his predecessors in the field of lyric poetry, which may be 
compared with the conclusion of the recently discovered Persae of Timotheus. 

In this, as in the other new classical fragments, many of the restorations of 
lacunae and suggestions in the commentary are due to Blass.

11. The supposed Al at the end of the line are really more like N. 

12. pavrevpalr|o» is written in a semi-uncial hand in the margin between Il. 12 and 30, ° 
and so far as its position goes might refer to either. Probably it and the marginal adscript 
at the beginning of the new poem (1. 55) were due to the same person, who may be identical 
with the writer of the main text. The note below |. 69 is almost certainly in a different 
hand, and the corrections in ll. 31, 32 and 63 seem to be by a third person. 

30. BACIAH[: either BaasAq|os or BaciAj[os|| és can be read. fevo8aixrns occurs in Eur. 
Herc. Fur. 391 as an epithet of Cycnus, who was killed by Heracles. But here the ‘ king 
who murders strangers’ is Laomedon; cf. 1. 40. 

32. The ‘ founder of Delos’ is no doubt Apollo. 

33- The doubtful € after TTAYC may be A. 

34. Bapyoddpayos occurs in Pindar, Jsth. 8. 47, and ¢prddpayos is found in the Homeric 


Hymn to Hermes, but Ali}oddpayos is new. 
36-42. ‘ Remember that he set up an altar in the dells of holy Paros to thee, the king, 


and to his honoured father, son of Cronos, having passed over the isthmus to the other 
side, when he came a herald of fated doom to Laomedon.’ 


409. NEW CLASSICAL FRAGMENTS 17 


36. prdoOnf is for p»aebyr:, Apollo being addressed ; cf. 1. 35 éeaSdde. The subject of 
gsoaro is Heracles, who, according to Apollodorus ii. § 99, came to Paros when on his 
quest for Hippolyte’s girdle, after which enterprise he went to Troy. sarpi Kpovig means 
Zeus ; cf. O/. 2. 13 Kpdme sai. | 


55 8qq. ‘... song and harmony ... were devised by one of the Locrians who dwell 
beside the white-crested hill of Zephyrium in furthest Ausonia, a rich city; he dedicated... 
a single paean meet for Apollo and...: I hearing his brief melody, plying an art of ceaseless 
words, am moved to song like a sea-dolphin ... 


55. Perhaps "Iéswy, but "Iadywv would be the form expected. In the marginal adscript 
the doubtful p» in the first line might be 8 or A preceded by another letter, and the doubtful 
a might be o, while a narrow letter such as « may have been lost between them. For v}u[»}os 
there is not space enough. Instead of xy in the third line xa: is possible, and the last word 
may be "Awd)\A(wm) ; cf. 1.64. Pindar wrote several tpvo: to Apollo; cf. Pausan. x. p. 858 
xabelerGai re rbv Divdapoy xal ddew drdca rey gopdroy és ’Ard\Xwrd éoriy. 

58. The reference is to Xenocritus (or Xenocrates) who invented the Locrian mode 
(Aoxptori) ; cf. Westphal, Metrik der Griechen, I. p. 286. For the restorations of this line 
and the next cf. Pind. Fr. 200 quoted by the scholiast on O/. x. 17 rpayeia 8¢ eledros Aéyosro

60. AOYCYTTE is rather long for the lacuna, and possibly KOAW|N[ANYTTE]P should 
be read. 

61. AN@ . [: above A is what may be a mark of quantity, probably Y. € can be read 
in place of 0. 

62. For [8)xqua cf. Pind. Fr. 124 éparay 3ynp’ doar. 

63. For the form sasmo[va cf. Bacchyl. 15. 8. 

67. For epeOl{jopa: cf. Plut. De soll. anim. 36 dedin Ulvdapos drreundfov éavrav épebi{erbai 
gnow (adri)ov deddivor indxpiory «r.A. The next words would be expected to be mpds dosd» 
(cf. the quotation as given in the introd.), but instead of this the papyrus has TIPOCAYTA[ , 
the last letter being extremely doubtful. Possibly avra[» is corrupt for doddy: if not, it must 
refer to doddy in J. 56. 

40. This note probably refers to 1. 53. 


409. MeENANDER, Kédaé. 


21-5 X 34:1 cm. Pratzs II and III. 


A notable increase has been effected during the last few years in the 
fragments of Menander, the discovery of the Geneva fragment of the Tewpyds 
being rapidly followed by that of the Oxyrhynchus fragment of the Tepixe:popévn. 
Another welcome addition is now made by the following considerable fragment 
of the KdAaf, a comedy previously represented only by a few short quotations, and 
some mutilated lines in P. Petrie I. iv. 1 assigned with much probability to this 
play by Blass (Hermes, xxxiii. p. 654, Rhein. Museum, \v. p. 102). The identifi- 
cation is established by the fortunate occurrence in the papyrus (Il. 42-4) of 

C 


18 THE OXYRHYNCHUS PAPYRI 


three lines quoted from the Kédaf by, Stobaeus, lord. 10. 21 (Fr. 294 of the 
Menander fragments in Kock’s Fragmenta Comicorum); while another line 
and a half formerly placed among the &&yAa Spdpzara (Kock, Fr. 731) occur in 
Il, 49-50. 
As is well known, this play was utilized by Terence in his Eunuchus, a fact 

which he himself states in the prologue (Il. 30-2) : 

Colax Menandri est: in ea est parasitus Colax 

et miles gloriosus. eos se non negat 

personas transtulisse in Eunuchum suam, 
the ‘parasitus’ Gnatho representing Menander’s 2rpov@las, and the ‘miles 
gloriosus, who in the Kédaf was called Bias (cf. 1. 32), appearing as Thraso 
(cf. Kock, Fr. 293, Plutarch, Mor. 57.4). But not much can be inferred from 
this concerning the plot of the KdéaAag, since the Eunuchus was the product of 
a contaminatio of two Menandrian dramas, the second being the Edvodyos ; and 
where Terence was following the one and where the other cannot be accurately 
determined. Unfortunately on this point the present papyrus, notwithstanding 
its length, does not bring much enlightenment. Throughout the first column 
the beginnings of the lines are lost ; and though different speakers are occasionally 
distinguished, and the sense of a line or two may here and there be caught, 
it is impossible either to follow the course of the dialogue or evolve a connected 
idea of the action. In Il. 1-13 the speaker is possibly Struthias, the parasite, 
and a comparison with Terence, Eunuchus ii. 2, would then suggest itself; but 
the resemblance, if indeed there can be said to be a resemblance, was not more 
than a general one. A closer parallel is obtainable between Il. 11-3 and Terence, 
Eunuch. iii. 4, a speech by Antipho. Lower down in the column other characters 
appear and the names Doris and Phidias (ll. 18-9) are mentioned; perhaps 
therefore a change of scene occurred in the course of this column, and the 
transition may be marked by the space between I]. 13 and 14. Column ii, which 
succeeds without a break, is in a more. satisfactory condition. Probably a new 
scene opens at 1. 39, from which point as far as 1. 53 we have a dialogue between 
two persons who are walking in the street followed by a slave carrying wine-jars 
(l. 47). One of them is infuriated by the sight of the parasite, Struthias, whom 
he declares (Il. 45-53) he would like to unmask in the open market-place. 
Below 1. 53 is a coronis and a short line; and then another dialogue succeeds 
in which the speakers are the familiar young man (A.) and his tutor (B.; cf. 1.55 
tpépize), the latter of whom makes a speech of some length upon the iniquities 
of the race of parasites (ll. 55~63). It would at first sight be natural to suppose 
that a change of scene occurred at Ll. 54, and that the short line is a stage 
direction. But what remains of 1. 54 does not seem to suit this view, while 


409. NEW CLASSICAL FRAGMENTS IQ 


on the other hand it can be easily connected with what follows; and, moreover, 
the speech of the tutor would succeed so appositely upon the outburst in 
ll. 45-53 as to give strong support to the hypothesis that the speakers in the 
upper half of this column are the same as in the lower. Line 54 must then be 
assumed to be defective. In the third column a different and apparently more 
dramatic scene opens, the transition to which is lost with the first few lines. 
This column is detached from the preceding two, but that it followed them 
immediately is rendered almost certain by the fact that this accords not only 
with the recto, where we have the correct amount of margin, but also with the 
verso, which has been used for an account. The break in the papyrus separates 
the figures of a column from the items to which they relate, and though the 
latter are too much defaced for the connexion to be established with certainty, 
the coincidence of the lines with the figures and the width of the resulting column, 
which exactly corresponds with that following it, suffice to make this relation 
of the fragments extremely probable. There is then hardly room for doubt that 
this was the next scene of the play; but although twenty lines remain, of which 
not more than a few letters or syllables are missing, the situation is very obscure. 
There is apparently only one change of speaker (1. 89); the soldier Blas, a leno, 
and a girl seem to be involved; but their relations are not made clear, and the 
Eunuchus seems to provide no definite clue. The mention of orpariGrat in 1. 82, 
with the passage in the next speech (ll. 91-4) ‘If he perceives it he will come 
bringing sixty comrades, even as many as Odysseus took with him to Troy, with 
shouts and threats,’ may recall the scene (Euauch. iv. 7) where Thraso with his 
comrades prepares to attack the house of Thais, a passage with which Blass also 
connects the Faym fragment referred to above ; but itis difficult to work out the 
analegy. 

The MS. is written in rapidly formed medium-sized uncials which we should 
assign to about the middle of the second century. This date is also indicated by 
the two marginal notes, one of which is of some length, written by the original 
scribe in a.smaller and more cursive hand, and also by the accounts already 
mentioned on the verso, which are not later than the first half of the third 
century, and may belong to the end of the second. Changes of speaker are 
marked by double dots and paragraphi as in the [leptxetpouévn fragment (211) ; 
stops are frequently added, the high point as a rule being used, though the 
middle (so apparently at the ends of Il. 6 and 35) and low point (1. 44) also occur, 
and accents, breathings, &c., are found here and there: most or all of these 
lection signs are by the first hand. The text is but mediocre in quality, for in 
addition to minor errors half a line may be missing at l. 54 — above), and the 
blank space after 1. 13 is suspicious.

10, nlol7réoy: cf. ll. 67 and 85. The Attic form is also preserved in the eptcetpopern 
papyrus, 211. 2. 

13. The blank below this line may indicate a change of scene (cf. introd.), but it might 
also mean that there was some omission at this point; cf. l. 54.

ing the speaker (cf. 211) which has been incorporated into the text or we must suppose 
the loss of a foot at the end of the line.

39-67. A (a young man). ‘What... has swooped down on us and whence is it? 
... that he is a knave is evident. 

B (tutor of A). How? 

A. No honest man ever grew rich quickly. For while he is putting by and living 
thriftily, the man who lays a trap for his patient watchfulness gets everything. 

8. How unjust it is what you say. 

A. I swear by the sun that if the slave were not following me carrying the Thasian 
jars and there were no suspicion of my being drunk, I would at once pursue him in the 
market-place crying: “Fellow, last year you were poor and an outcast, but now you are 
rich, Say what trade you have been working at; answer me this, whence have you got all 
this? Won't you be off... somewhere else? Why do you teach men wrong? Why do 
you declare to us that there is profit in evil-doing ? ” 

8. There is one character, my boy, only one which has brought utter ruin upon the 
world, and so I tell you. This alone it is that has ruined all the cities which you have seen 
laid waste, as I have now discovered. ll the tyrants, all the great rulers, satraps, captains, 
founders, generals—I mean those who have come to complete ruin—this alone has been 
their destruction, namely the miserable parasites who attend them. 

A. That is a violent speech ; but I am not sure what is the meaning of this. 

B. Any one might be so mistaken as to suppose the man who was intriguing against 
him to be his friend. 

A. But if the intriguer is powerless? 

B. Every one has power to do evil.’ 


34- The supposed point after €| may be a vestige of another letter.

more feet into the remaining space, which seems in any case almost too short for the

63. To find a restoration of this passage which at once suits the sense and the papyrus 
is not easy. of rdpeow naturally suggests itself, but the letter after O is almost certainly Y, 
not |, and before EICIN the traces would be consistent with the tip of a letter like A, A or M

410. RHETORICAL TREATISE. 


25-4 X 23°2 cm. Prate IV (Cols. i-ii). 


A. treatise on Rhetoric in the Doric dialect is something of a surprise, 
but that such was the character of the work from which these fragments are 
derived admits of no doubt. The dialect, though occasionally corrupt, is the 
same as that found in the fragments of Archytas of Tarentum and other 
Pythagoreans, and in the anonymous Atadééers "HOixal, the composition of which 
is attributed to the beginning of the fourth century B.C. (cf. Mullach, Fragm. 
Phil. Graec. i. pp. 5448qq.; ii. pp. 9 sqq.). To the same period and probably 
to the same school the present treatise is also to be assigned. The precepts 
inculcated by the writer are of a simple and practical character, and their 
principal object is the attainment of peyaAorpéreca, which, as we also know from 
Quintilian (/zs?. Or. iv. 61-3), was specially included among the xarrandt 
(cf. 1. 15 éy 32 [rat] duayjoe) virtutes by certain authorities. Poetical quotations 
are freely introduced, a circumstance which forms another connecting link with 
the Aradéfers ; cf. Mullach, of. cit. i. pp. 546, 548. 

The greater part of four consecutive columns is preserved, the first of these 
being practically complete. They are written in a neat, rather small, round 
uncial hand which we should place in the latter half of the second century A.D., 
though the contents of the verso, a series of epigrams (464) in a semi-uncial 


« 
410. NEW CLASSICAL FRAGMENTS 27 


hand, appear to be of a considerably later date. The columns lean over rather 
markedly to the right. Quotations usually, though not always, project by a letter 
or two into the left margin, as in other papyri of this period (cf. e.g. 220). The 
text is not very good, and in several passages the corruption has gone considerably 
deeper than the mere debasement of the dialect.

of the address of ingratiation one appears to use common phrases and not written ones, and 
speaks of nothing as a matter of certain knowledge, but of opinion and hearsay, whether 
from the jury or others. Such are the points in the exordium which are useful as 
giving an impression of fairness. In the narration of facts, the following directions serve

other abbreviation used in the papyrus is the horizontal line representing N. 

38 sqq. The intelligible part of this column is mostly occupied with quotations. 
Lines 48-54 are from J/itad ix. 389, 404, 381, and 385, and Il. 55—7 from J/. iv. 443; 
xdddos dpifoe is the ordinary reading in ix. 389 instead of c«idus épi{o. We have not 
succeeded in identifying the citation from Sophocles in ll. 59 sqq. 


71-85. ‘Moreover take no pleasure in making indecorous or insolent statements, for 
that is mean and a sign of an intemperate disposition, while the avoidance of abuse is a

A leaf from a vellum codex of a historical work, written in double columns 
in a calligraphic uncial hand resembling that of the Codex Alexandrinus. The 
fragment was found with papyri of the later Byzantine period but is certainly not 
later than the sixth century, and more probably it is to be assigned to the fifth. 


32 THE OXYRHYNCHUS PAPYRI 


The leaf is a good deal worm-eaten, and the writing being on very thin vellum 
has a tendency to come through on to the other side. There are no lection- 
marks of any kind, nor are initial letters of lines larger than the rest. N at the 
end of a line is generally represented by a horizontal stroke. 

The fragment, which despite its brevity covers the period from the mutilation 
of the Hermae to Alcibiades’ arrival at Sparta, clearly belongs to a life of 
Alcibiades rather than to a general history. This fact, coupled with the use 
of such a phrase as éfopxfjoacdat ra pvorypra (Il. 25-6), which is found in Lucian, 
Achilles Tatius, and other late writers, indicates that the work in question 
was a composition of the Roman period. Thucydides is the principal authority, 
several phrases from him being incorporated ; but that he was not the exclusive 
source is shown by the mention of [lovAurlwy, whose name is recorded by 
Andocides (De Mysteriis, p. 7, Reiske) and Plutarch (Add. 19, 22), but not by 
Thucydides ; cf. 1. 57, where the papyrus comes into conflict with Thucydides, 
There is no reason to think that the writer borrowed from the much more 
detailed narrative of Plutarch, whom it is as likely as not that he preceded. 

So brief an account of well-known events could hardly be expected to 
contain new historical information, but the papyrus is interesting as a specimen 
of one of Plutarch’s rivals in the sphere of biography who must have enjoyed 
considerable vogue for a time. There are a few errors on the part of the copyist, 
but the style of the fragment is fairly good. The sympathies of the writer were 
obviously on the side of Alcibiades.

‘(The Athenians) considering that (the mutilation of the Hermae) was not only 
an (outrage) but a conspiracy to establish a tyranny, and recalling the brutality of the 
Pisistratidae, sought to discover the authors by large rewards for information. Alcibiades 
in particular they held in suspicion, judging from his pride and position that he was 
ambitious of a great career, An informer gave evidence in no way bearing on the 
Hermae, but accusing Alcibiades of having betrayed the mysteries at the house of — 
Pulytion; whereupon Alcibiades came forward in the assembly and defended himself, 
demanding that the case should be decided before he became general. But his accusers 
resisted, urging the people not to delay the prospects of the (expedition). .., firstly 
because both Mantineans and Argives were joining in the expedition (owing to him) and 
were already present at Athens, and secondly because they knew that the Athenians, in 
their desire to start for Sicily, would acquit him. Such were the circumstances under 
which Alcibiades departed, after making many just protestations that. they should pay no 
attention to slanders; and having sailed to Sicily he won over nearly all the cities settled 
there through their friendly intercourse and relations with him. But while he was still 
with the expedition at Catana, the events at Athens intervened; for his calumniators 
again accused him before the ecclesia of the mutilation of the Hermae, . .. the Athe- 
nians imprisoned amongst others Andocides the orator, and sent to fetch Alcibiades 
the ship called the Salaminia, which, on account of its great speed and because it was 
equipped at the public charge, was usually employed on sudden emergencies. Alcibiades 
” however, on being summoned for trial, was aware that the Athenians had already 
condemned him in advance and would not wait for his defence, and (accompanied 
the Salaminia as far as) Thurii, where he took flight and sailed to the Peloponnese, 
voluntarily surrendering himself to the Lacedaemonians, There he subsequently made 


411. NEW CLASSICAL FRAGMENTS 35 


a public speech in defence of the injuries which he had inflicted upon the Peloponnese, 
alleging that they (the Lacedaemonians) had passed him over and honoured Nicias, and 
urging the Lacedaemonians to help the Sicilians at once on the ground that, if they 
failed to assist them speedily, the hopes of the Athenians would be realized. He inspired 
the Lacedaemonians with the strongest desire for war, and further advised them to make 
a fortified outpost of Decelea...’

36 THE OXYRHYNCHUS PAPYRI 


412. Jutius AFRICANUS, Keorol. 
26-5 X 22-3 cm. Prater V. 


Two columns containing the conclusion of Book xviii of the Keorol of 
Julius Africanus, as is expressly stated in the title preserved at the end. This 
title clears up at once two moot points concerning the Keorof. Joseph Scaliger 
(Animadv. in Chron. Eusebiz) in spite of the unanimous testimony of antiquity 
distinguished between Sextus Africanus the author of the Keorof and Julius 
Africanus the Christian chronographer and friend of Origen. This view has 
found little favour with subsequent critics, and is controverted at length by 
H. Gelzer in his recent book on Africanus. Its baselessness is finally proved 
by this papyrus, whose testimony must carry the utmost weight in view of the 
fact that it is separated by little more than a generation at most from the floruit 
of the author. The chronological work of Africanus was brought down to the 
year 221, and the Keorol are supposed to have beem composed subsequently ; 
while this MS. is anterior to the year 275-6, since on the verso is a document 
dated in the reign of the Emperor Tacitus. Secondly, a doubt has existed 
as to the number of the books of the Kecrol, which is given by Photius (B20/. 34) 
as fourteen, and Suidas (s.v. “Adpix.) as twenty-four; Syncellus, who speaks 
of the work as évvedBiBAos (p. 359 4), no doubt only knew it in an incomplete 
copy. The similarity of the figures fourteen and twenty-four naturally suggested 
that the difference was due to a clerical error, but there was no reason to prefer 
one to the other. We now know that there was an 18th book, and may 
accordingly accept the higher figure. 

The Keorof are described by Suidas as olovel guatxd, Zxovra éx Adywy re Kat 
ézaodGy kal ypanréy rev xapaxrypwr does tre cat GdAolwy évepyecov. A number 
of excerpts have survived dealing with military matters, the care of animals, 
and agriculture (AZath. Vet., ed. Thievenot, pp. 275 sqq.), and on the latter subject 
large extracts are embodied in the Geoponica. The present fragment exhibits 
another side of this multifarious composition, being concerned with a question 
of literary criticism. The author produces twenty-seven lines, mainly consisting 
of a magical incantation, which were to be inserted in the passage in Book xi of 
the Odyssey where Odysseus calls up the ghosts. For these new lines definite 
authority is cited, references being given to MSS. in Palestine, Caria, and Rome ; 
and a doubt is expressed as to whether this ‘precious product’ was cut out 
by the poet himself or by the Pisistratidae! We do not suppose that Homeric 
scholars will be inclined to accept either of those alternatives. -They will 


412. NEW CLASSICAL FRAGMENTS 37 


perhaps be more likely to include this passage in the list of things which 6 dvijp 
otros év trois Keorois avrod reparodoye? nal d:€feror (Psellus, af. Math. Vet. p. xvi). 
Nevertheless it affords a valuable insight into the writer’s methods and standards 
of criticism ; and though.we may not admire his judgement, there is no ground for 
suspecting his facts. Of especial interest is the statement (Il. 65-8) that he had 
arranged a library in the Pantheon at Rome ‘for the Emperor.’ According 
to Syncellus (doc. cit.) the Keorof were dedicated to Severus Alexander, from 
which Gelzer has inferred that Africanus was on a footing of friendship with the 
imperial house, a conclusion to which the new autobiographical detail of the 
papyrus gives strong support. 

The MS. is written in well-formed round uncials of medium size, and being 
dated within such narrow limits, its palaeographical evidence is of much value. 
To suppose an interval of ten years between the writing of the literary text 
on the recto and the cursive document on the verso would be a very moderate 
estimate. The date of the former therefore is fixed with certainty in the period 
between the years 225 and 265 A.D. But notwithstanding its proximity in time 
to the author the text is far from being a good one; several lines of the 
incantation especially are clearly corrupt, and one of them is incomplete. In 
these circumstances little weight can be attached to the variants from the ordinary 
text in the quotations from Homer. The two columns are numbered at the top 
respectively 35 and 36; thirty-four columns had therefore preceded, and if, 
as is most probable, these all formed part of the same book, its total length would 
be about 1530 lines.

set them down here as being a most valuable product of the epic art (?); and you will find 
the whole work preserved in the archives of your (?) old home, the colony of Aelia Capitolina 
in Palestine, at Nysa in Caria, and as far as the thirteenth verse at Rome, near the baths of 
Alexander, in the beautiful library at the Pantheon which I myself designed for the Emperor.’ 


44-6. This passage may be construed as it stands by taking eyov . . . ro mepeepyoy

omitted ; the words may have come in from 1. 49. 

5374. We take eyywy as equivalent to a» Zor, and suppose the loss of a conjunction

margin opposite this line indicates that there was some omission.

56. This is another difficult passage. The letter after r in the mutilated word must 
be either « or o, and there is not room for more than one letter, which ought not to be 
a broad one, in the lacuna; ryv r ey} is therefore not suitable. Blass suggests ry» re 
(or 8e) [c}», taking the person addressed in ¢{vlpeces (1. 58; 1. ¢b]pnoes) to be a Jew to 
whom this Keorés was dedicated and the author of the work in question. This suits rns 
apxaas n{alrpides, which would then mean ‘ your old native country’; though the supposition 
that the author required to be told where his own work was to be found is not quite 
satisfactory. To understand rys apyams a{alrpdos as the native land of Africanus himself, 
unless the phrase is interpreted in the unnatural sense of ‘the country in which I used

to live,’ referring to his settlement at Emmaus-Nicopolis, would of course involve the 
inference that he was of Syrian origin. This has already been maintained by Valesius 
(Adnot. in Euseb. 7. £. p. 113) and others, though on grounds quite insufficient to over- 
ride the statement of Suidas that Africanus was a giAdcodpor Ai8us. On the other hand 
Gelzer’s argument (0. cif., Einleitung) in support of this testimony, namely that Africanus 
knew Latin, seems hardly more conclusive on the one side than Africanus’ probable 
knowledge of Hebrew on the other.

413. Farce anp MImMeE. 
22-9 X 42°3 cm. 


Both sides of this remarkable papyrus are occupied with literary com- 
positions of an unusual type. On the vecfo are three columns, of which the two 
latter are almost complete, of a low comedy or farce, written in a good-sized 
semi-uncial hand, the dramatis personae being carefully distinguished and stage 
directions added. Adhering to the right of the third column about halfway 
down is an uninscribed fragment of some size, showing that the work did not 
extend beyond half a column more at most. On the verso are, firstly, two 
columns in a much smaller and more cursive hand, preceded by a few letters 
of a third upon the projecting fragment already referred to, from what may 
best be described as a mime, which is mainly, at the least,a monologue. The 
second of the two complete columns is shorter than the other, and there are 
some 6 centimetres of blank space below it. Secondly, adjoining this to the right 
is another column of dialogue in the style of the recto, and with the same 
characters, written in a somewhat larger and more careful hand, but evidently by 
the same person who was responsible for the foregoing mime. This column 
was intended to supersede the latter portion of the first column of the recto; 
cf. note on ll. 30-6. To assign both sides of the papyrus to one scribe is out of 
the question, but we are not inclined to think that the two documents were 
separated by a considerable interval of time. The hand of the recto we attribute 
with little hesitation to the Antonine period; that of the verso no doubt falls 
within the second century. 

As we have already seen, the MS. apparently was not continued more than 
a few lines beyond the third column of the recto, if it did not actually end 
at that point. This fact is quite in accordance with the internal evidence, for the 


42 THE OXYRHYNCHUS PAPYRI 


impression given by the lower part of this column is that it is the exodium 
or conclusion of the whole piece. Metrical passages are introduced, a system 
of Sotadean verses in ll. 88-91 being followed after a short interval by a series of 
trochaic tetrameters (Il. 96-106); and there was an accompaniment of music and 
dancing (cf. ll. 88-9, 92-3). The close of the play is also probably indicated 
by the word xatacroAy in 1. 95, which heads the concluding section. The scene 
is the coast of a barbarian country bordering upon the Indian ocean (cf. Il. 88-91), 
and the subject is the adventures in those remote regions of a party of Greeks 
chief among whom is Charition, the heroine of the drama. Such themes are 
familiar from the pages of the early Greek romances, and the plot of this piece 
seems to have run on lines very similar to theirs. Charition had not improbably 
been carried off in the usual way by pirates, and had so come into the hands 
of the barbarians, whose Greek-speaking king (cf. ll. 88sqq.) is one of the 
characters of the play. She had apparently taken up her abode in a temple 
(cf. Il. 215, 225); and the present fragment describes her rescue by her brother 
and others who had arrived by sea, and who succeed in effecting their escape after 
making her captors drunk. Professor Crusius, to whom we are much indebted 
in the reconstruction and interpretation of this papyrus, acutely suggests that the 
position in which Charition found herself placed may have been similar to that 
of the heroine in the romance of Xenophon of Ephesus, Antheia, who in order to 
repel the advances of the Indian prince Psammis represented herself as dedicated 
to the goddess Isis (cf. 1. 88 Ged YeArjun, and 1. 106 ri of apd[emodor)), and lived 
for some time in that capacity under Psammis’ protection (Epes. iii. 11). A large 
number of characters are introduced. Besides Charition, whom the stage 
directions call A, her brother (I, cf. ll. 97-9), and the barbarian king, called 
Bao(tAes), we have the buffoon (B) who largely supplies the comic element. This, 
as might be expected, is often of a coarse kind. B is of the Greek party and does 
not understand the barbarian language (cf. Il. 58, 66) ; but some non-Greek words 
are assigned to him in ll. 75 and 79-80. Another well-identified character is A, the 
captain of the ship (Il. 101). The personality of others is less easy to ascertain. 
In the fourth column of the verso 5, who goes to fetch the ship, seems to belong 
to the brother's party, and is consequently to be distinguished from the speaker 
in I]. 70-1 and. 74, who uses only the barbarian language, but is designated by 
a symbol which might otherwise be supposed to represent ¢. It is, however, 
formed quite differently from the ¢ on the verso, and is more like the sign for 200. 
Z, who figures only in Il. 31 and 71-3, is another barbarian. There remains 
xot( ), whose remarks are also with one exception (I. 104) in the barbarian 
tongue. We are indebted to Prof. G. Wissowa for the suggestion that the 
abbreviation is to be expanded xo(y7), ‘all’ or ‘altogether,’ referring either to 


418. NEW CLASSICAL FRAGMENTS _ 43 


. the body of the barbarians or of the Greeks as the case may be. This hypo- 
thesis satisfies all the conditions, and accounts for the appearance of xo( ) 
in ]. 104, which would on any other view be a difficulty. In Il. 195 sqq. a party 
of barbarian women, who have just returned from a hunting expedition, is 
introduced. They are armed with bows and arrows, and nearly succeed in 
shooting the buffoon (Il. 207-8). 

Apart from the distribution of the various parts the MS. includes a number 
of symbols and abbreviations which are to be interpreted as stage directions. 
The commonest of these are a r with a dot and a horizontal dash above it 
(in 1. 211 there is no dash), and a pair of short strokes curving towards each 
other at the centre (e.g. |. 11) which is sometimes followed by a straight stroke 
(e.g. 1. 39). The + (which we print simply as r) is probably to be connected 
with the music, and might stand for r(vpmavicpds) ; cf. 1. 92 r(vpmrarcjds) roA(Us), 
xpoto(ts), ll. 69 and 95 where r is similarly combined with woA( ), and 1. 87 
r(vpxaxopos) (wevrdxis?). The two curved strokes, which sometimes stand before 
or after r (e.g. Il. 65, 72), but more commonly are by themselves, may also have 
a musical signification, or may refer in some other way to the accompanying 
action; their use is not like that of mere marks of punctuation. The word 
aop&4) which is repeatedly associated with the remarks of B, the buffoon, seems 
also to be of the nature of a stage direction ; cf. 1. 22 wépd(erat)!. The speeches 
in the barbarian language are usually written continuously, like the Greek, 
without separation of words; but in one passage (Il. 61-4) the words are divided 
by points, while in others the insertion of one of the symbols described above 
serves a similar purpose. The language is no doubt to a large extent of an 
imaginary nature, but it may include some genuine non-Hellenic elements; 
cf. note on |. 83. 

The mime of which two columns are preserved upon the verso of the 
papyrus is of a simpler character. The chief figure here is again a woman, upon 
whom the action centres throughout ; most of the other actors are slaves. The 
motive of the first scene (Col. ii) is that of the fifth mime of Herondas, the 
(nAdrumos.. The young mistress- makes proposals to one of her slaves, Aesopus 
(I. 115), to which he declines to listen, whereupon she orders him to be put 
to death along with a female slave (? Apollonia, 1. 120) whom she supposes to be 
the object of his affections. These cruel commands, however, are not actually 
carried out, for the male slave manages to escape, and his assumed paramour is 
only placed in confinement. In the next scene (Col. iii) the bloodthirsty 
mistress is engaged in plotting the death of an old man, to whom she appears 


1 Cf. E. Littmann ‘ Zin arabisches Karagos-spiel’ in the Zeitsch. der Deutschen Morgenland. 
Gesellschaft for 1900, where the catch-word of the buffoon is ‘ Scheiss.’ 


44 THE OXYRHYNCHUS PAPYRI 


to have been unhappily married. Her accomplices are two slaves, Spinther and 
Malacus, who also figured in the previous scene; and a ‘parasite’ acts as a go- 
between. The column ends in a rather obscure manner without her nefarious 
purpose having been accomplished, and the piece seems to have been left 
unfinished. 

Whether at any point in these two columns the monologue of the mistress 
is interrupted by other speakers is a matter of some doubt. The sentences 
are in the original divided off by an oblique dash (see the critical notes); and 
at two points (at the end of 1. 117 and in the middle of |. 185) the dash is 
preceded by three short horizontal strokes. Possibly this sign should be inter- 
preted as an indication of a change of speaker, which would in either case suit 
the context. Thus in 1. 117 xvpf’? would = xvpla, the natural mode of address 
from a slave to his mistress; and in 1. 187 8éomuTa implies the entrance of 
a new character (the old husband ?), to whom may be attributed the words oval 
pot. But if so the scribe was not consistent in the use of this sign, which should 
have been repeated when the previous speaker resumed ; and if omitted in these 
cases, it may be absent entirely in some others where an interchange of speakers 
might be supposed to occur, e.g. 1]. 172 To moiov, 1. 178 at ms; pddAtora, «.T.A, 
But this is not necessary, and we do not feel satisfied that the other two 
passages cannot be explained on the hypothesis that the piece isa monologue _ 
throughout. 

With regard to the date of the composition of these two productions, Crusius 
considers that the mime belongs to the Roman period, while the farce may 
be rather earlier, though not a product of the better Hellenistic age. Their 
literary quality cannot of course be ranked very high, but they are not devoid of 
merit. The situations disclosed in the farce shows some skill in construction, 
and when on the stage may have been amusing enough even without the coarser 
elements; while the mime, though without the accompanying action it is 
sometimes obscure, has considerable vigour and dramatic force. Not improbably 
_ these two pieces were once performed in the theatre of Oxyrhynchus, and they 
may be regarded as typical of the performances upon the provincial stages 
at this time. In short, they afford a most interesting glimpse into the music-hall 
of the period immediately following that which is represented by the Alexandrian 
Erotic Fragment (P. Grenf. I. 1).

buffoon, who is evidently the speaker, apparently vows to erect a silver statue of his patron 
saint Hopdn if he escapes from his perils.

30-6. These lines are enclosed in the papyrus by a circular stroke which passes 
through 1. 30, and there can be no doubt that it was intended that their place should 
be taken by Col. iv of the verso, This is indicated by the note at the bottom, 
which is in the same handwriting as the verso. The fact that in relation to the foregoing 
column the letters of the note are upside down is unusual, and rd é would be expected 
rather than ré «low; but rd «low would represent the point of view of the writer of the 
mime, and the practical identity of 1. 30 with Il. 188-9 adds a conclusive proof that 
the column on the verso was meant to be inserted at this point. Line 30 is accordingly 
to be restored xupia Xapirwy cilpyaipe, the speaker being ¢ as in |. 188; it may also be 
noted that the word adeypyaxa found in 1. 35 also occurs in 1. 205 in the scene with 
the barbarian women, to whom airds in 1. 33 probably refers. 4 os per| in the footnote 
is obscure ; # suggests that the longer passage on the back was an alternative draft.

and escape. So enter and fetch your property, and if you can, carry off one of the 
offerings to the goddess. 

A, Prudence, fellow! Those in need of salvation must not accompany their 
petitions to the gods with sacrilege. For how will the gods listen to men who try to 
win mercy with wickedness? 

B. Don't you touch, I will fetch it. 

F. Well, fetch your own things then. 

A. Ido not need them either, but only to see my father’s face. 

F. Enter then; and do you serve them... and give them their wine strong, for here 
they come.’ 


198. of is evidently an exclamation, like ovd. 

204. At this point the women begin an attack on the buffoon, who cries out to 
Charition for help. Charition accordingly intervenes with the word ‘alemaka’ (I. 205), 
which is repeated by the rest and apparently has the effect of restoring peace. 

206. ove nAew makes no sense and seems to be corrupt; there was perhaps some 
play on adezaxa in the previous line (cf. ll. 92-3). ov xnAciy might be read, but this hardly 
improves matters. 

213. The marginal note seems to refer to this column, to which it is closer than 
to Col. iii of the mime; but the meaning is obscure. ayw(éa) or dyéxicpa) would suit 
the upper part of the column, but is hardly apposite at this point. 

216—25. Cf. ll. 42-9, where the same request is put into the mouth of the buffoon, 
Charition again declining in words almost identical with those used here. 

228—30. Cf. ll. 52—¥. 


38~106. ‘ZB. I think that they are the daughters of swine; these too I will get 
rid of. (Drums, * * ¢).

B. They also have run away to the Psolichus. 

C. Yes; but let us get ready, if we are to escape. 

B. Lady Charition, get ready if you can to take under your arm one of the offerings 
to the goddess. 

A. Hush! Those in need of salvation must not accompany their petitions to the 
gods with sacrilege. For how will they listen to the prayers of those who are about to 
gain mercy by wickedness? The property of the goddess must remain sacred. 

B. Don't you touch; I will carry it. ° 

A. Don’t be silly, but if they come serve them the wine neat. 

ZB. But if they will not drink it so? 

C. Fool, in these regions wine is not for sale. Consequently, if they get hold of this 
kind of thing they will drink it neat against their will (?).

42-9. Cf. ll. 216-225, note. padéoa is a new verb formed from paddy, and a comic 
equivalent of Baord{ew (cf. 1.218). In]. 47 peAAdvrw» must be read for uéAAorres. 

53- drep does not seem right, and there may be some corruption. p is quite 
uncertain, and perhaps ame was written twice by mistake; but a broader letter would be 
expected. xaimep would give a more suitable meaning. 

57. The latter part of this line after apayeivorvras seems to be filled with stage 
directions. Above the doubtful ov of deov is a stroke like an accent, which may indicate 
an abbreviation. dyvareo( ) is perhaps for dsawaio(rexds). 

67. This remark is addressed to one of the barbarians. 

7°. The words should perhaps be divided oxahpa xardBa(?) wrecpayouss; cf. 1, 72 where 
mre(«)payous recurs. On the speaker here and in ll. 71 and 74 cf. introd. p. 42. 


418. NEW CLASSICAL FRAGMENTS 55 


76=80, The distribution of the parts in this passage causes some difficulty. 2., the 
buffoon, elsewhere speaks Greek only, and appears not to understand the barbarian 
language. Yet in ll. 75 and 79 he is assigned non-Greek speeches, and the speaker who 
intervenes either at the end of ll. 75 or 76 may also be B. It will be noticed that in 
either case there is a 8 near the end of the line; but in both instances the letter 
following is closer than it should be if the 8 was meant to represent the character. 
If the attribution of ll. 75 and 79-80 to BZ. is correct, he may be supposed to be 
emboldened by the conviviality of the barbarians to address them in a meaningless jargon 
intended to imitate their language. 

82. At the end of the line we should perhaps read ov(e)s{s, as in Il. 83-5. 

83. Assuming that it is worth while to attempt to bring the barbarian language in this 
piece into relation with any known speech, the key is possibly to be found in late Pali or 
old Prakrit. We owe to Dr. G. A. Grierson the suggestion that in the present passage, 
for instance, srayoupSpnr: may represent pand amrta, ‘ drink’ (or ‘ life’) and ‘ nectar,’ which 
suits the context remarkably well. Similarly he would connect adep(y)uxa in Il. 35 and 205 
with the Pali alam ‘ enough,’ ‘ stop,’ -ka being a substantival suffix which an ignorant Greek 
might use incorrectly. But we must leave the consideration of this question to Sanskrit 
scholars. 

89. 1. dverov? 

90. Gelpdépour, though a new compound, seems certain; cf. AcyiOpous, &c. Some 
syllables are missing at the end of the line, and a substantive is required to complete 
the sentence; perhaps rémavoy followed by a long syllable. 

91. [2}ypcxdy (Crusius) is very attractive, though it hardly fills the available space. At 
the end of the line the doubtful \ may be ». 

93- Spxnoas reproduces the sound of the barbarian opxo(.). 

94. &. is probably still the speaker. 

96-106. The verses with which the scene closes are trochaic tetrameters, but the 
text seems faulty in places, and some alteration is required to reduce the metrical system 
to order. Thus ll. 98 and 104 are each a syllable short, and II. ror—-2 are considerably 
too long. Crusius suggests that in 1. 101 6 xvBepynrys is a gloss on éyh; and if these 
two words be omitted and al[plérws (for mpwros) and ¢y transposed, the metre is restored. 
Line 98 may be amended by reading § pa (or dpa) wdvé’, which also improves the sense. 
The iambic trimeter in 1. 105 is unexpected, and a cretic may be lost at the beginning ; 
but it is perhaps better not to demand exact regularity, especially since ll. 95-6 are also 
not trochaic tetrameters. 

95. xaraorody in the original is written after the manner of a title in larger letters, 
with little dashes above and below. It is probably equivalent to xaracrpopy, as in 
Schol. on Aristoph. Pax 1204 riv 8¢ xaracroAiy rod Spdparos éroinaey dpolay rois "Axapveviar. 

100. The first letter may be m. 

116. The word before avr{ ) seems to be some part of either dpdooew or rapdovew. 

117. kup’ may be either xvpee or xvpia according to the view taken as to whether 
a change of speaker occurs at this point; cf. introd. It is not quite clear where the 
words added above |. 118 and in the margin were intended to be inserted. Crusius 
supposes that rdyrwy ob» . . . cvvreOpapp(évwv) is resumptive of the previous conditional sen- 
tences, to which the apodosis is xevds . . . épdvn, the general sense being ‘ If women had the 
hard work to do that I have, you would be as little inclined to love as I.’ ofe] after ef 3¢ is 
quite doubtful; the fibres of the papyrus are displaced. 

119. There is barely room for an a at the beginning of the line, and the supposed a 
of aix(eis) is more like o. 


56 THE OXYRHYNCHUS PAPYRI 


120-152. ‘So seize him, slaves, and drag him off to his fate; now bring out her also, 
gagged as she is. I bid you take them away to the two promontories, and bind them to 
the trees that lie there; then drag them far apart and take care that you keep each out 
of the other’s sight, lest they die happy feasting their eyes upon each other; and when 
you have slain them, come into me. Ihave said; andI will go within. What do you say? 
The gods have really appeared to you, and you were afraid? ... Although he has escaped 
you, they shall not elude the desert guards. Now I wish to propitiate the gods, Spinther. 
Swear ...say the sacrificial prayers. Since the gods are about to appear to us auspiciously, 
sing the praise of the gods in expectation. Knave, won’t you do as you are told? What 
has happened...? Go in and see who it is. What does he say...? Look, lest the 
proud one too be within. I bid you remove this woman, and hand her over to the desert 
guards, and tell them to load her with iron and keep her carefully. Take her, drag her 
off, away with her! And do you search for him, and having slain him, cast out his body 
that I may see him dead. Come, Spinther and Malacus, with me. I will now go out 
and try to see with certainty if he be dead, that [ may not again be carried away 
by strife. Thus will I address him(?). ‘“ Ah, see him here! Oh, poor wretch: would 
you be thus cast out rather than love me? How shall I mourn him as he lies deaf to my 
voice? ... All strife is over! Cease ...I will ease my ravished heart (?).”’ 


130-1. The displacement of the fibres of the papyrus at the ends of these lines much 
interferes with their decipherment. At the end of 1. 131 the letters xe. oc are certain, 
and éxeivos seems almost inevitable, though the singular d{c|¢vyew is awkward. It appears, 
however, from ll. 140 sqq. that only the male slave had escaped. In 1. 130 dqlalyr(os) 
would suit the context, though not the traces on the papyrus. 

138. |xawy seems certain and is perhaps for paive, but this is not very satisfactory. 
ri yeyove|y €|xetvy cannot be read. 

139. 6 imeppparos seems to mean the slave who had scorned his mistress’s attractions, 
and who had evidently succeeded in effecting his escape ; cf. 1. 143 éxeivoy ava{yrncarres. 

147-152. It would at first sight appear from this passage that the slave had actually 
been caught and put to death, and that the sight of his dead body had filled his mistress 
with remorse. But the analogy of ll. 181 sqq. suggests that this lament may be only 
imaginary,—a forecast of what would be appropriate when the occasion came. pévoves 
ooo: in ], 187 is also in favour of this explanation. 

‘152. The first word is very uncertain. The doubtful p is more like y, and ]87 might be 
read for Jex[, but 8¢}87ypévas does not fill up the space. «|ex{Aalopévas is also unsatisfactory. 
At the end of the line dp@ hardly seems right. 


153-87. ‘Spinther, whence that crest-fallen look? Come up to me here, knave, 
in order that I may strain some wine. Come in, come in, knave; come here! Where 
are you walking from? Turn in here. Where is the half of your tunic, the half of it, 
I say? 1 will pay you in full for everything. This is my resolve, Malacus: to kill 
them all and sell their property, and then to withdraw somewhere or other. Now I wish 
to get the old man into my power before he has any idea of this; and I conveniently 
have a deadly drug which I will mix with some mead and give him to drink. So go 
to the broad door and call him as though for a reconciliation; let us too go, and 
communicate the affair of the old man to the parasite. Ho slave! The case is this,. 
parasite.—Who is this? And she? What is the matter with her then? Unveil her 
that I may see her. I require your help. The case is this, parasite. I have repented 
and wish to be reconciled to the old man. Go then and see him, and bring him to me, 


414, NEW CLASSICAL FRAGMENTS 57 


and I will go in and prepare your dinner.—I commend your speed, Malacus. Have you 
got the drug mixed and is the dinner ready? What? Malacus! here, take the mead. 
Unhappy man, I think the parasite is panic-stricken. Unhappy man, he laughs! Go 
along with him lest anything happen to him.—This has been done as I wished; let us 
go in and deliberate more securely about the rest. Malacus, everything has gone as 
I intended, if we also make away with the old man. Parasite, what has happened? 
Ah, how? Certainly, for I now have them all in'my power. Come, parasite! What 
do you want then? Spinther, give me poison enough. Parasite, I am afraid I shall laugh. 
You are right. I say—what ought I to say? My father and lord, to whom are you 
leaving me? I have lost my freedom of speech, my glory, my light of liberty! You were 
my Jord.—Thus let me mourn him (though I speak not truly).—Woe to thee, wretched, 
hapless, miserable, loveless one! Woe to you, woe to me! For I know who you are. 
Hateful Spinther, bring the block for this man! Who is this again?—They are still safe, 
master | ’ 


154. The letter before o in &vAlow looks more like 7 than «, but d&wAiow must in any 
case have been intended. 

166. A female character enters at this point, but there is no clue to her identity. 
xpeiay cov éyw may be addressed either to her or the parasite. 

173. wavdAnuwros in the sense of wam«dés appears to be a new word. savdAnpmros 
might equally well—perhaps better—be read, but is more difficult. 

184. des is very doubtful and hardly fills the available space, but the letters at the 
beginning of this line, being over an erasure, are larger than elsewhere. 

185-7. On the interpretation of this passage see introd. p. 44. 


414. PuxHILosopHicAL FRAGMENT. 
Fr. (2) 14-3 x 11-8 cm. 


Several fragments from a work of a philosophical nature, written in a good- 
sized and well-formed hand which seems to be a rather early specimen of the 
oval sloping style. In the formation of the letters and general appearance this 
MS. bears a decided resemblance to 26, and probably falls within the second 
century rather than the third. Columns iii and iv are on a detached piece 
of papyrus, but very likely succeed Col. ii immediately. The subject under 
discussion is poets and the poetic faculty. There is no indication that the 
treatise was cast in the form of a dialogue.

_ . A fragment from a lost speech of an Attic orator, which, if the restorations 
proposed by Mr. Smyly in ll. 6-8 are correct, is to be identified with the oration 
of Isaeus against Elpagoras and Demophanes. Not more than about half 
a dozen letters appear to be missing at the ends of the lines. The handwriting 
is a small and neat round uncial, which may be -attributed to the second 
century. All three kinds of stops occur (the middle point in Il. 10 and 15) 
and occasional accents, which may be by the original scribe.

12 XQ°5 cm. 


On the recto of this papyrus are parts of two columns of an alphabetical 
vocabulary, written in sloping third century uncials. The portion preserved 
deals with words beginning with or, e.g. orgigos ot onal, orpepet eAar[, orpmpa eoral, 
ofrje:Bee aprt, [or}:Ader Sevpe,, Zryvia re arf. On the verso of this is the fragment 
printed below which seems to come from some romance. This is written in 
a late third or early fourth century semi-uncial hand, with stops and occasionally 
other lection signs. Paragraphi apparently occur below ll. 9, 12, and 15, showing 
that not more than a few letters are lost at the beginnings of the lines ; possibly 
indeed there is nothing missing in front of ll. 4-5. But there is no sign of the 
termination of the lines to the right, and a connected sense is not attainable. 
Lines 8 sqq. describe a supernatural appearance of some deity.

14:3 X9°7 em. (Fr. a). 


Parts of two columns, with some small detached pieces, from a prose treatise 
of a rather uncertain character. Col. ii, which contains twenty more or less 
complete lines, is concerned with a woman named Theano whose son was carried 
off from the Scythians by a certain Hippasus(?). Theano, after being assured 


62 THE OXYRHYNCHUS PAPYRI 


in a dream by ‘the goddess’ that she would recover her son, went to Oropus 
with Eunice, apparently a friend. This looks rather like a fragment of some 
romance; or it might perhaps be the work of a scholiast or mythologer—though 
the characters are otherwise unknown to fame. The text is in a rather small 
round uncial hand strongly resembling that of 404, and probably dating from 
the earlier decades of the third century. The high and middle stops occur.

418. Scuoiia on Homer, /éad I. 
27°7 X12 cm. 


An imperfect column of a commentary upon Book I of the /iad, written 
in a large and clear cursive hand at the end of the first or early in the second 
century. The information provided is principally of a mythological character, 
and since 1. 399 is discussed immediately after 1. 264 the papyrus very likely 
consists of a series of excerpts. There are very close resemblances to Schol. A, 
which in several passages exhibits an inferior text; and considering the early 
date of the papyrus it is not unlikely that the commentary in question was one 
of the sources used in compiling the scholia in A which give mythological 
details. It shows traces of Didymean influence (cf. 1. 24, note), but was 
probably derived directly or indirectly from Apollodorus (cf. ll. 9-22, note). 
The lines commented on are for the sake of clearness printed in capitals.

is almost identical with the papyrus, but is more compressed in some parts and more 
expanded in others. As before, the papyrus exhibits the better text, (1) by avoiding the 
repetition of 4» in the first sentence, (2) by having veavias in place of 4 »eams which is 
detrimental to both sense and construction, and in the light of the papyrus should

in I]. 400 not in 1. 399, and that the story of the conspiracy of Hera, Posidon, and 
Apollo against Zeus follows as a kind of justification for the variation. As Apollo played 
an important part in the legend, this order is really more logical than that found in 
Schol. A, which first gives the story of the plot in connexion with 1. 399 and then 
discusses the variant ®oi8os "Anédd\A\wy, which is ascribed to Zenodotus but rejected as 
inappropriate. The account in Schol. A is as follows:—Zets mapadaBav ri dy» otpave

marked, though the papyrus is somewhat shorter and varies the phraseology. The 
mention of Athena in the scholium, but not in the papyrus, is due to the slightly different 
point of view from which the legend is brought forward. If the scholium gives the actual 
words of Didymus, the papyrus would seem to be a secondary commentary based upon 
his notes; but on the other hand the papyrus may express Didymus’ language more 
exactly, and the scholium be an expansion.

A narrow strip containing parts of sixteen lines from the Archelaus of 
Euripides, written in round rather irregular uncials of medium size, which are 
of the second or third century. The identification of the fragment, which we 
owe to Blass, rests upon the coincidence of what remains of II. 8-g with a quota-

are trochaic tetrameters, which are succeeded at |. 13 by a xoptxdy. Several cor- 
rections have been made in the text, perhaps by the original hand, to which also 
the stops and occasional accents, &c., may be due.

420. ARGUMENT OF Euripipes £iectra. 
15°7 XQ:2 cm. Prats VI. 


A fragment of a brief account of the recognition of Orestes by Electra 
through the intermediary of an old man, and almost certainly part of a hitherto 
unknown wtrdbects of Euripides’ Electra, covering ll. 341-584. The verso has 
been used for writing an account in a cursive hand of the late third century. 
The writing on the recto, which is of a common type (cf. Plate VI), probably 
dates from about the middle of the same century.

421-434. PorETICAL FRAGMENTS. 


We, here group together a number of miscellaneous fragments in verse, 
which do not seem to be extant and which are too small to be of much value. 
Of these four (421-8 and 484) are in hexameters, three (424-6) are lyrical, 
seven (427-38) are in iambics, chiefly comic. 

421 consists of the ends of nineteen hexameter lines written in a second 
century uncial hand with occasional breathings, accents, stops, and marks of 
quantity. The subject of the fragment is the parentage of Bellerophon and 
the gift of Pegasus (who is not mentioned by Homer). There are no indica- 
tions that the poem was a late epic, and several phrases suggest Hesiod as the 
author. 

422 contains parts of eleven much mutilated hexameter lines, written in 

F 2 


68 THE OXYRHYNCHUS PAPYRI 


rather large and well-formed uncials of the square sloping type, and dating 
probably from the third century. A battle scene is apparently being described ; 
Heracles is mentioned in 1. 9 and part of another name occurs in 1. 4. The 
vocabulary suggests that the fragment comes from some Alexandrian epic. 

423 is a strip from the bottom of a column, containing on the verso parts 
of thirteen hexameters in a large and rather rough uncial hand apparently of 
the third century. The recto of the papyrus is blank. The high stop occurs 
several times and marks of elision and accents were used. The subject of the 
fragment is obscure ; a reference to the Nile is noticeable in 1. 13, while Hermes 
is mentioned in ]. 4. 

424 contains a fragment of three stanzas in Sapphic metre, probably by 
Sappho herself, written in a heavy uncial hand of the third century resembling 
that of the Oxyrhynchus Sappho fragment already published (7). Accents and 
stops are found, the high point in Il. 6 and 10, the middle point in]. 5(?). The 
form drépats (= érépas) in 1. 9 is of some interest, since the a was hitherto doubtful 
for the Lesbian dialect; cf. Meister, Gretch. Dial. p. 41. 

425 is a short extract from some lyric poem copied out as a school 
exercise. This is indicated partly by the character of the handwriting, which 
is a large irregular uncial, partly by the fact that the papyrus is complete 
in itself; and the inferior spelling points to the same conclusion. Below the last 
line are a series of dashes. The excerpt is of the nature of an invocation such as 
might have come at the beginning of the poem, which does not appear from this 
specimen to have been of a very high-class quality. The metrical scheme is 
—Y_Yu-. The date of the MS. is second or third century. 

A more valuable fragment is 426, a long narrow strip containing parts of 
thirty-two lines from a lyric poem in dactylo-epitritic metre and Pindaric style, 
which is not improbably to be attributed to Pindar himself. Unfortunately the 
piece is so mutilated that little can be done in the way of restoration, though 
a few lines in the middle which concern Melampus are intelligible. The text 
is written on the verso of the papyrus in a rather uncultivated uncial hand which 
may be assigned to the third century; on the recéo is part of a cursive document 
dating from the latter half of the century preceding. 

427 is also a fragment of some importance. It consists of the latter parts of 
the three closing lines of a play, below which is the title Javous | }royoma. There 
can be little question that Blass is right in reading this [ Avrid |dvous [’AvO@pw}zoyorla, 
and that the papyrus furnishes another example of the dangers of rejecting definite 
ancient evidence on @ priori considerations. A Qeoyovla of Antiphanes is men- 
tioned by Irenaeus (ii. 14), who gives a lengthy excerpt from it ; this, however, 
was rejected by Meineke (i. pp. 3:8 sqq.), who maintained that it was derived from 


» 


421-484. NEW CLASSICAL FRAGMENTS 69 


the Birds of Aristophanes, and Kock accordingly omits the extract given by 
Irenaeus from his collection of the Comicorum Fragmenta. But it can hardly be 
doubted after the actual occurrence of the title "Avripdvous ’AvOpwaoyorla that the 
testimony of Irenaeus concerning the Oeoyovla of the same writer is perfectly 
trustworthy ; though: whether they were two distinct works, or one work known 
by two names, remains uncertain. The text is written on the verso of the papyrus 
in a square or oval sloping uncial hand (cf. 420) of the third century ; on the 
yecto are parts of three lines in second century cursive. 

428 contains the ends of nine iambic lines of a comedy, or possibly a 
tragedy, written in a small semi-uncial hand, which is more likely to belong 
to the second century than to the third. A short diagonal dash at the top 
of the line is used as a mark of punctuation. 

429 is another comic fragment, containing the beginnings of fourteen iambic 
lines written in a large and handsome uncial of the square sloping type 
characteristic of the third century; cf. 420. On the verso is part of a document 
in cursive dating from the end of the century. A paragraphus below I. 9 marks 
a change of speaker. In Il. 10-2 a marriage is being arranged, which may 
indicate that the conclusion of the play was not far off. A very deep margin at 
the top of the column is noticeable. 

4380 consists of parts of eight lines in comic iambics from the top of a column, . 
written on the verso of a second or early third century account. Marks of elision 
and high stops occur, but no breathings or accents. The writing on the verso is 
probably but little later than that on the recto. 

431 consists of parts of twelve lines of a dialogue in comic iambics, written 
in an uncial hand resembling the square sloping type, but more probably second 
century than third. Changes of speaker are indicated by paragraphi and, when 
in the middle of a line, by blank spaces. 

432 contains the beginnings of seventeen lines apparently from a comedy, 
written in a small uncial hand upon the verso of a second or early third century 
account. A correction in 1. 15 and marginal notes opposite Il. 2 and 8 have 
been added in a more cursive hand, but probably by the original scribe. Changes 
of speaker are indicated by paragraphi and, when in the middle of a line, by 
double dots (cf. 409). The marginal notes’ seem from their position to refer 
to the speakers, but the names (‘P]nropix(ds) or plntopex(ds) and ‘Aplp(pmr) or 
’Apid(pddns)) are curious. The writing on the verso may be assigned to the 
third century. Between 1]. 13 and 14 is a blank space sufficient for two lines. 

438 contains the ends and beginnings of iambic lines from the upper parts 
of two columns, The MS. seems to have been of a magical character, giving 
directions for a series of spells or incantations, the objects of which are indicated 


70 THE OXYRHYNCHUS PAPYRI 


by short marginal notes; cf. ll. 22, 28, and 33. The hand is a small semi-uncial 
which may be of the end of the second or more probably of the first half of the 
third century. 

484 is apparently a fragment from a hexameter poem, perhaps a @pivos 
or émrdgios. Groups of a few lines (usually four) are separated by a shorter line, 
which may have contained a refrain. Parts of two columns remain, written in 
rather large coarse uncials, probably of the third century. On the verso is 
some more writing in a similar but more cursive hand.

435-444. Prosk FRAGMENTS. 


Under these numbers are included a variety of small prose fragments which 
we have not succeeded in identifying. Two (485-6) are historical, three (487-9) 
of a philosophical character, the remainder, with the possible exceptions of 441 
and 444, are oratorical. 

435 contains parts of two columns written in an informal uncial hand 


435-444. NEW CLASSICAL FRAGMENTS 77 


probably towards the close of the second or in the first half of the third century. 
The Corcyraeans are mentioned in connexion with some one whose name began 
with Anyo, and who persuaded them to provide a talent (of silver); and there 
seems to have been some question of a marriage. 

436 is a third century fragment from the bottom of a column, written in 
square sloping uncials (cf. 420 and 447) of good size. The general sense of 
ll. 5-10 is fairly clear, and the passage is evidently part of a description of some 
distinguished general, which might come either from a biographical monograph 
or from a more comprehensive historical work. 

437 comprises parts of fifteen lines from the bottom of a column, the subject 
of which seems to be the practice of surgery, though it is not clear whether 
the fragment belongs to some professedly medical treatise or to a philosophical 
work of a more general character. The hand is a medium-sized sloping uncial 
probably dating from the third century. 

488 consists of parts of twenty-three lines written upon the verso of a second 
century account in a semi-uncial hand, also of the second century. The first 
line, which is shorter and apparently in a more cursive hand than the rest 
and has a space below it, is more likely to be a marginal note than the title 
of the work, which seems to have been of a philosophical character, the author 
using the first person very frequently. 

489 is written on the verso, the recto having only a diagonal stroke such 
as is found in accounts. Parts of fourteen lines are preserved, written in rather 
small third century uncials of the usual type; cf. 420. <A breathing and elision 
mark occur. The fragment comes from a philosophical writer, apparently 
not Plato. 

440. Two fragments which were found together and are apparently in the 
same hand; but whether they belong to the same MS. is doubtful, for the 
papyrus of (3) is somewhat thicker than that of (a), and (4) has on the verso 
parts of six lines written in a good-sized uncial hand, while the verso of (a) is 
blank. The writing on the recto is a third century uncial of a common type 
(cf. 447). (a), which was a carefully punctuated papyrus, i8 probably a fragment 
of an orator. 

441 contains the ends and beginnings of lines from the upper parts of two 
consecutive columns, written in a small sloping hand probably of the third 
century. The use of the second person plural (1. 16) and the occurrence of the 
name Philip (I. 20) suggest a rhetorical composition; but it might also be 
inferred from the short line at 1. 19 followed by a name in the genitive case 
that the MS. comprised a collection of érog6éypara or anecdotes. 

442. A long strip containing the latter halves of lines from one column and 


78 THE OXYRHYNCHUS PAPYRI 


a few letters from the beginnings of lines of the next. The piece seems to be in 
the oratorical style, but it is too mutilated for the drift to be caught. 

448 is apparently a fragment of a private oration, and contains the beginnings 
of twenty-four lines written in a round uncial hand of a calligraphic type; it 
more probably belongs to the second century than to the third. The low 
and high points occur in ll. 4 and 6 respectively. 

444 is a fragment mentioning Philip and the Macedonians, but whether 
it comes from a public oration or from a historical work is uncertain. The 
handwriting is a medium-sized uncial of the second century, probably of the 
early or middle part of it.

84 THE OXYRHYNCHUS PAPYRI 


III. FRAGMENTS OF EXTANT CLASSICAL 
AUTHORS 


445. Homer, Jihad VJ, 
Height 30-5 cm. Prater IV (Fr. a). 


OF the numerous Homeric papyri of the Roman period which have been 
discovered, very few present so many points of interest and importance as the 
following fragments of the sixth book of the 7/ad, written in a medium-sized 
uncial hand with critical marks and occasional marginal notes, and containing 
parts of Il. 128, 134-7, 148, 173-94, 199, and 445-end. While the critical marks, 
which include the diple, antisigma, and asterisk, are all due to the first hand, 
in the marginal notes two or three hands are probably to be distinguished, 
though owing to the paucity of the material for forming a judgement it is 
impossible to classify them with certainty. To the first corrector, whom we 
will call A and who employed a small semi-uncial hand, we should assign 
the notes on Il. 128, 148, and 449, together with all the superscribed variants. 
To the second (B), who wrote a small more cursive hand, belongs the note 
on 1. 464; and to a third (C), who wrote a larger cursive, that on 1. 478. The 
figure at the end, giving apparently the number of lines in the book, is cursively 
written but apparently by the first hand, and it is possible that either A or B 
(but not C), is also identical with the original scribe. The question is, however, 
not of great importance, for there is certainly no appreciable difference of time 
between the writing of the text and the addition of the scholia and interlinear 
readings. The first century is out of the question as the date of the papyrus, 
and both text and notes suggest the second century or the beginning of the 
third. Breathings and accents are occasionally, and elision-marks generally, 
used, and the punctuation is careful, the high point being employed, except 
in ll. 477 and 496, where the middle point occurs, indicating a slighter pause. 

In its disposition of critical marks the papyrus as a rule accords with the 
Venetus A, but there are some divergences ; cf. notes on ll. 183 and 189. The 
marginal notes are, however, very scanty compared with Schol. A, though such 
information as they give is of considerable value, since they are all concerned 
with various readings. Most of these notes record differences between the 
papyrus and the xowy or generally accepted text, which is occasionally mentioned 
in the extant Homeric scholia, but not in connexion with these particular 
passages. Besides the readings ascribed to a definite source in the marginal 


445. FRAGMENTS OF EXTANT CLASSICAL AUTHORS 85 


notes, other variants are inserted between the lines without any indication of 
their origin. Since they are sometimes rare, sometimes the common readings, 
it is not probable that they were all derived from any one text. 

The papyrus, which is remarkably free from errors and has more affinity 
with A than with any other extant manuscript, presents in spite of its extremely 
mutilated condition a number of important readings which are either altogether 
new (see notes on Il. 487, 494, and 523), or are known to have existed only from 
scholia (1.187), or from quotations in other authors (1. 493). Of these, one (ace 
pddtora 8° éuot instead of macw epot 3¢ pdAcora in |. 493), is distinctly superior to 
the traditional text, and affords one of the rare instances of an emendation made 
in the text of Homer by a modern editor being confirmed by a papyrus. 

In our commentary upon this papyrus we owe several suggestions to 
Mr. T. W. Allen, who has also very kindly placed his own collations at our 
disposal. Our collation is with the text of Ludwich.

128. The marginal note refers to the ancient variant otpavdy for the common reading 
ovpavoi. Schol. A has (reading odpavet in the text) ovrws ’Apicrapyos oloy xataBéSnxas rév 
ovpard»y, 3:5 dia rot ¥ ypade, nar’ ovpavdy. The reading of Aristarchus is found in several 
families of MSS.; whether the text of the papyrus had ovpapo» is uncertain. 

148. The marginal note presents much difficulty. &py was according to Schol. A 
the reading of Aristophanes, while the nominative Spy is found in nearly all the MSS. 
and is preferred by Lud. The iota before at apx(aa) apparently belongs to the main 
text (which therefore agreed with Aristophanes), not to the note, and since a apy(aat) 
would most naturally refer to the reading of Aristophanes, we should expect the authority 
for the other reading wpy to be given by the intervening word or words. But it is not 
easy to interpret the meaning of o nxov’. The reading of the first letter is by no means 
certain, for the o is larger than the usual omicron of this scribe and might represent a 8, 
and it is moreover placed underneath the x of apx(as), which is above the line. But the 
following » has been corrected from o apparently, so that what seéms to have happened 
is that the scribe first wrote apX oxov” and then converted the o into », inserting o in the 
blank space underneath the x. The obvious division 4 xo(w7) is open to the objection that 
the o after « is not written above the line as in the marginal notes oh Il. 128 and 478. 
Mr. Allen suggests & 4 xo(s}) &mo)o(réAXe), comparing the use of trocroAy in Anecd. 
Bek. II. p. 600 for the ‘omission’ of iota. The scholium would then mean that the 
ancient copies read Spx, but the common reading was py with no iota. This gives very

good sense, but v” is hardly the kind of abbreviation of vrocreAAe which would be expected 
on a papyrus of this period, and the construction of ¢ (sc. the « of wpm) is somewhat diffi- 
cult. yxove{ ) as one word, however, suggests nothing but the first aorist of dxovw, 
and though it is noteworthy that in Schol. A on this line dxove: occurs (‘Apmropayns 
ypader rneOdavra cat eri ray pvAAwy axover kal rd pn perd rou ¢ ypddes xara al 8 frovo(ev) 
or & qxovo(av) here makes no sense, and for 8 #xove(a), ‘as I heard,’ there is no parallel in 
scholia of this character. 

174. For the diple before this line cf. Schol. A 4 dcrdyH, dre éwihopdés dare mpds rdy 
éxvéa dpcOpéy, The papyrus adds an antisigma as well; cf. the explanation of this sign 
in a grammarian ap. Dindorf, Schol. I. p. xlvi rd 8 durlovypa nal ai 800 orcypal Gray card rd 
éfqe Bis f rd aird vénpa Keipevov. 

176. A has the diple against this line with comments upon rére pur épéeve and ofjpa. 

178. A has a diple against this line, but no comment. 

181. The diple before this line, like that before 1. 186, has a dot above it and 
possibly is meant for a dirAj wepteortypévn, which should have a dot below as well. That 
sign was used to denote the readings or transpositions of Zenodotus, Crates, and 
Aristarchus. But since A has an ordinary diple against ]. 181 with the remark dre é cpa 
» xivapa, and none at all against 1. 186, and since no variation of reading among the 
ancient critics is recorded in connexion with those two lines, it is more probable that 
the diple with one dot has the same meaning as the plain diple, or at any rate means 
something different from the drAj mwepreoreypevn. 

183. Here the Ven. A has a diple with the remark dre ovdéy wepl ris xara rév Diyyacoy 
loropias éudaiver. Possibly the diple which is found in the papyrus before 1. 186, where 
the Ven. A has none, has been misplaced and should have preceded 1. 183. But there 
are several instances of divergence between the papyrus and A with regard to the diple; 
cf. note on |. 189. 

187, The reading of the first hand emepyopevw is ascribed to dAdo by Schol. A, 
but is not found in any MS. The reading of the corrector amepyoperm (ascribed to 
Aristarchus by Schol. V) occurs in the Lipsiensis and apparently in Mr. Allen’s L 20. 
It is curious that the papyrus seems to ignore avepyouevw, the ordinary reading and 
that ascribed to Aristarchus by Schol. A. It is now clear that the variant emepxopevw 
Sbcpes is not even mentioned by Ludwich or Monro and Allen) rested on considerable 
authority.

Mr. Allen informs us that besides A, his D, V 16, and P, and probably a few more have: 
tppedrion, and this reading is indicated by the remark 80(riey) w{e)r(a) rov & The papyrus 
seems unique in calling evppedox dative, perhaps from false analogy with ’Acios (v. sup.), 
which in spite of the scholiasts is probably to be interpreted as dative. 

The dash after ¢ is apparently a mark of punctuation, Whether y(em«n) (if that be 
the right expansion of y in the text) evppeAcoo means that evypediw is to be regarded 
as a genitive, equivalent to evypedcon, or that there was a variant evppedcoo, is not made

clear. euppedcowo, though it does not scan, is actually found in one MS.; but the first 
hypothesis is more likely, though evppeAtou would be expected. 

456. “Apyes éotoa Lud., the MSS. being divided. spds (Lud.) is the reading of all 
the MSS. except one at Vienna (W) in which spés is corrected to mpd, as here. 

464. Over v of xadumro: is a circular mark resembling the sign for a short syllable. 

The marginal note here is in a more cursive hand than that employed in the other 
cases, The vulgate does in fact read reves; cf. Schol. A on H. 409, I. 633, P. 161, &c., 
from which it appears that Aristarchus read reOemms. So far dAdos has been the only 
source assigned to the form re@vews, which is read in the majority of the MSS. 

475. Olecow: Beoioe Lud. 

477. Cf. A, where ex is superscribed above dpurperéa, the reading of other MSS. 
and Lud. 

478. After the lacuna following Psy is a spot of ink at the top of the line, which 
we have considered to represent an elision-mark after r. If this is correct, the note 
probably refers to the alternative readings Bin» r’ dyad» (the best-supported reading, 
so Lud.) and Binv dyaéév (so many MSS.) or Bin» dyabcy re (ascribed to dAdo: by Schol. A). 
Of these Bin» dya6dy is that most likely to have stood in the text of the papyrus, since 
Binv r’ is recorded in the margin and the reading inv dyadév re ignores the digamma before 
IAiov, whereas in |. 493 the papyrus preserves a digamma which is ignored by the MSS. 
But it is possible that after Si{y there was no +r’ and that the spot of ink represents 
a stop or is even accidental, Then the marginal note may refer either to Bm» r in the 
text or to Bony (or Bony r), a reading found in D, two Vienna MSS., and Mr. Allen’s N 4. 
The fact that the scholia do not mention Boy but comment on the position of re is in 
favour of the view that the note here referred to a variation concerning re, not Ain». 

479. & (ws) over the line refers to the variants y’ de (Aristarchus) and 8’ 6 ye (the 
reading of nearly all MSS.). It is quite uncertain which of the two was found in the 
text of the papyrus. 

485. Above the last two letters of ovopafe are traces of ink which apparently indicate 
something superscribed. The only variant known is évpafey, and the vestiges do not 
suggest either » or a horizontal stroke meaning ». 

487. The m of mpoiaye: has been corrected from a(?). The variant spore inserted 
above the line is not recorded in connexion with the present passage, but in Q. rro there 
was an ancient dispute whether mpoidrrw or mporidmre was to be read. 

490-2. For the asterisks before these lines cf. Schol. A on 490-3 réocapas orixos

passage by Hoffmann and Bekker, comparing a. 359, A. 353, and ¢. 353. For another 
example of a conjecture in the text of Homer being confirmed by a papyrus see P. Grenf. 
II. p. 11, where in ¥. 198 Nauck’s conjecture d«a 8€ "Ips instead of the MSS. reading 
dxéa 8 "Ips is found in a third century B.c. papyrus. It is noticeable that there, as here, 
the papyrus preserves a digamma which had been ignored by the MSS.

507-9. The papyrus omits the asterisks which are found in A against these lines, 
but has the diple against |. 507, as in A. 

510. wplos: in the margin before this line is what looks like the top of a critical 
mark, of which the rest is lost. A has a diple against this line. 

518. The smooth breathing above the initial » is uncertain, but the vestiges suit that 
better than a circumflex. There is a diple before this line in A. 

521. The 8 and p of datzon [| have possibly been corrected. 

523- @dA axewly: ddd é&kovy MSS. Cf. 8. 111, where Rhianus read déxovra for dxéovra. 
This error (déxo» for dxéwv) is not uncommon in MSS. dxéw» makes good sense here. 

527. 0 Of erolvpamos is corrected from +. 

529. Below the coronis is a number, apparently referring to the lines in the book. 
If 525 is correct, Book vi in this papyrus was four lines shorter than in our texts. But 
in view of the carelessness of scribes in numbering successive hundreds of lines (cf. 228), 
not much reliance can be placed on the figure here, though cf. 448. 302, note.

A narrow strip of papyrus containing parts of Il. 58-99 of /had xiii. 
The scribe was unusually careless, and the fragment has no critical value; 
but palaeographically it is interesting, since a portion of a cursive account on 
the verso of the late second or third century supplies an approximate terminus 
ad quem for the date of the literary text on the recto. The latter, written 
in a square and upright uncial hand, may be placed near the end of the second 
century.

447. Homer, Jad XXIII, 


73% 492 cM. Prate VI. 


The following small fragment from the twenty-third Book of the Jad, 
has, like the preceding papyrus, a palaeographical interest. The text on the 
recto, written in square slightly sloping uncials, represents a common type of 
literary hand (cf. especially 26); while on the verso is part of an account in 
cursive which is not later than the beginning of the third century, and more 
probably belongs to the second. It is, therefore, not at all likely that the MS. 
on the vecfo was written later than the latter part of the second century. A few 
accents &c, occur, apparently added by the original scribe.

448. Homer, Odyssey XXII anp XXIII. 
_ Height of Column 29-6 cm. 


The following fragments are from a roll comprising Books xxii and xxiii of 
Homer’s Odyssey. Of the twenty-second Book portions of seven consecutive 
columns remain, covering with some intervals ll. 31-317. Book xxiii is repre- 
sented only by two small pieces from a couple of columns, nine intermediate 
columns being wholly lost. The text is on the verso of the papyrus, the récto 
having been previously utilized for a prose literary work which has been carefully 
cleaned off—unfortunately so effectively that the writing is quite illegible. 
The letters here and there traceable are formal rather heavy upright uncials 
of good size, probably not earlier than the third century, to which the hand 
of the verso may also be attributed. This is also upright and rather large, 
but lighter and more ornate. Accents, breathings (usually acute-angled), marks 
of elision, &c., and high stops have been added with some frequency, mostly by 
a second hand, which has also introduced some corrections into the text; the 
marks of elision, however, seem to be mainly due to the original scribe. The 
system of accentuation is generally similar to that found in 238, the long papyrus 
of /iiad v; in oxytone words, however, all the syllables except the last bear 
a grave accent (though not in xxii. 184 evpv yepor), as in the Bacchylides papyrus, 
whereas in 228 only the penultimate syllable has the grave accent. As in 238, 
perispome words followed by enclitics become oxytone. In the case of diphthongs 
the second vowel is usually accented, while in 228 the reverse is the case, but the 
writer was not very careful, and it is sometimes a matter of doubt for which | 
letter an accent was intended. A peculiarity is the method of writing the 
accents, which are as a rule nearly, and sometimes quite, horizontal. 

The papyrus shows on the whole a good text, which is of interest on account 
of some agreements with X (Vindobonensis 133), or U (Monacensis 519 B),

449. Evripipes, Andromache. 


Largest fragment 9 x 7 cm. 


These fragments of a single column from the beginning of Euripides’ 
Andromache provide what appears to be an early example of the use of the 
book form (cf. 468). The writing—a medium-sized not very regular uncial, 
probably of the first half of the third century—is on the verso of the papyrus, 
while on the recto in the centre of the page are the letters pn[{ or pt.{ witht a short 
horizontal stroke above them and a lacuna sufficient for another line below. 
These letters may represent a number or perhaps a title, e.g. palo "Avdpopuayns. 
Supposing this MS. to have been a codex the size of a page would have been 
about 28x14 cm. The text seems to have been a fairly good one. An 
otherwise unrecorded variant occurs in 1. 27,

450. Euripripes, Medea. 
4:1 X 5:3 cm. 


A fragment from the top of a column, containing parts of lines 710-5 of 
Euripides’ Medea, written on the verso of the papyrus. On the recto are two or 
three mutilated lines of cursive, of the second or third century. The literary 
text on the verso, which is in a somewhat rapid, sloping uncial hand, may be 
assigned to the third century.

Ss | 7X 3°4 cm. 


A small fragment from the top of a column containing parts of 10 lines from 
the end of Chap. 73 and the beginning of Chap. 74 of Thucydides, Book ii. The 
text, which is written in a third century uncial hand of rather small size, shows 


104 THE OXYRHYNCHUS PAPYRI 


a slight divergence from the usual order in 1. 9. How exactly the lines were 
divided is not certain; the distribution proposed below is fairly satisfactory, 
though the lacuna at the beginning of 1. 2 is somewhat overcrowded.

7X 3:8 cm. 


This is another scrap from Thucydides (iv. 87) written in medium-sized square 
uncials which we should assign to the end of the second or to the third century. 
The identification of the fragment—due like that of the preceding and following 
to Blass—was rendered the more difficult by the fact that aluynoroy in 1. 11, 
which is the only uncommon word in the text, is a new variant found in no MS. 
Another otherwise unrecorded reading occurs in I. 3.

A fragment from Thucydides, vi. 32, written in an upright uncial hand of

from the end of the first. The text coincides so far as it goes with that of Hude 
except for the use of o in place of € in 1. 9.

The recto of this papyrus contains part of a money account in Latin, written 
in a good-sized cursive hand of the second century. On the verso are parts 
of three columns containing pp. 507-8 of Plato’s Gorgias, written in a medium- 


106 THE OXYRHYNCHUS PAPYRI 


sized uncial hand of the middle or later part of the second century. Stops are 
occasionally found, a high point in Il. 62 and 87, and a point opposite the middle 
of the preceding letter in ll. 50 and 118, though whether these were really 
intended to represent a different pause is doubtful. There are a few corrections, 
sometimes in a different hand. Being the first papyrus of part of the Gorgias to 
be discovered, the fragment is of considerable interest, though the text is not very ~ 
good. There are numerous minor variations from the later MSS., but most of these 
are clearly wrong ; cf. notes on Il. 9, 18, 34, 40, 79, 105, and 116. It is noticeable, 
however, that in one passage (Il. 51) the papyrus agrees with the text of 
Iamblichus and Stobaeus against the readings of the MSS., and that in another 
(ll. 113-5) it removes a slight difficulty where an error in the text had already 
been suspected. It is also a matter of some importance for the textual criticism 
of Plato that in two places (Il. 48 and 105) the papyrus supports the Vindobo- 
nensis against the other MSS. The conjectures of various scholars in the 
part covered by the fragment gain no support from it, and even in a passage 
where &@A:o: clearly seems to have dropped out of the text before or after oi 
&@Avor, the papyrus agrees with the later MSS. in omitting it; cf. 1. 76, note. 

We give a collation with the text of Bekker (1826) ; but for the readings of 
the MSS. and of Iamblichus and Stobaeus we are indebted to Prof. J. Burnet, 
who has very kindly placed his collations of this passage at our disposal.

A fragment of the third book of Plato’s Republic, p. 406, written in a not 
very regular uncial hand of medium size. On the verso are parts of nine lines 
of a document in late third or fourth century cursive; the writing on the reczo, 
which is somewhat late in style, may accordingly be assigned to the middle 
or latter part of the third century. Changes of speaker are marked by the usual 
double dots. There are practically no variants from the text of Bekker.

456. Prato, Republic IV. 
5:3 xX 7 cm. 


A small fragment from Plato’s Republic, IV p. 422 D, written in a medium- 
sized uncial hand probably towards the end of the second or in the early part 
of the third century. A change of speaker is indicated, as commonly, by double 
dots. There are no variants from Bekker’s text.

457. Aerscnines, /n Ctesephontem. 
13°4X 7°3 cm. 

A column from a roll containing the speech of Aeschines against Ctesiphon, 
written in a round uncial hand of medium size probably in the second century. 
The part preserved corresponds with § 167, and shows an interesting text with 
several readings not found in any of the existing manuscripts ; while a claim for 
the consideration of these is made by the fact that the papyrus agrees with the 


best group of MSS. in a crucial passage (il. 13-5). Our collations of this and 
the other oratorical fragments are with the Teubner editions of Blass.

Fr. (2) 7-3 %4:6 cm. 


Three fragments written in a good-sized uncial hand of a common third 
century type (cf. 447), comprising parts of §§ 21, 26-7, and 29-30 of Aeschines’ 
oration De Falsa Legatione. The text contained several errors, which have been 
corrected in a small uncial hand, probably that of the original scribe.

we should attribute to the third century; this is, therefore, an unusually early

example of a classic in codex form. Several alterations have been made in the 
fext, some of which may be by the original scribe, while others seem to be 
by a second hand;; to the latter probably are also to be attributed the occasional 
marks of punctuation, breathings, and elision signs, Neglect of the principle of 
elision is, however, very common in this MS., the divergences of which in this 
respect from the text of Blass are omitted from the collation given below.

ghaci mpis Aax. It would be possible to read Ao at the end of 1. 48, but then the lacuna 
at the beginning of the following line is not satisfactorily filled, and the position of the 
overwritten rjov is unaccounted for. Moreover the traces on the papyrus suit qacs 
much better; and we therefore suppose that this word was placed later in the sentence, 
its loss perhaps being compensated for by the insertion of rous before Aaxedaipovous, and 
that Ipexparqy Equadrov (which is preferable on account of the space to ®cdoxp.) was 
originally written at the beginning of 1. 49, S:Aoxp. rov peng subsequently inserted above 
the line by the corrector.

Parts of two columns from a copy of the wept Elpjyns of Demosthenes 
(pp. 62-3, §§ 21 and 23), written in good-sized square sloping uncials (cf. 447), 
probably near the beginning of the third century or even somewhat earlier. 
An angular stroke is used to fill up a short line in 1. 5. A noticeable variant 
from the ordinary text occurs in Il. 5-6.

This fragment from the top of a column contains part of Demosthenes’ 
De Corona, p. 227, §§ 7-8, written in rapidly formed sloping uncials which are 
more likely to date from the third century than from the end of the second. 
An unknown variant occurs in 1. 9, but the passage is mutilated.

Parts of two columns containing portions of §§ 25-8 (pp. 233-4) of the De 
Corona, written in a good-sized third century uncial hand resembling that of 228 
and 420. There are a few variants, but the text of the papyrus isa poorone. An 
erroneous reading in |. 28 has been corrected in a different hand. Two kinds of 
stops (the high and low points) occur, and a wedge-shaped sign of varying size 
is used for filling up short lines.

463. XENOPHON, Anadbasis VI. 


Width of column 5 cm. 


Part of Xenophon’s Anabasis VI. vi. §§ 9-24, written in narrow and rather 
short columns; the lower portions of seven are preserved. The handwriting 
is a good and apparently rather early specimen of the square sloping style, 
and may be assigned to the end of the second or the first half of the third 
century. The middle point occurs irregularly and the common angular sign is 
used to fill up short lines. Our collation is with the edition of Gemoll (Teubner, 
1900), supplemented by that of Dindorf (Oxford edition, 1855); for some 
additional information concerning the readings of D and E we are indebted 
to Mr. E. C, Marchant. 

For purposes of textual criticism this papyrus is of considerable interest. 
The MSS. of the Axaébasis fall into two well-defined divisions, a small group 
headed by the Parisinus (C), and a more numerous group, generally recognized 
as inferior to the other, but containing readings which all editors accept. The 
peculiarity of the papyrus lies in the fact that it combines lections characteristic 


120 THE OXYRHYNCHUS PAPYRI 


of both classes of MSS. Thus, while agreeing in several cases with the 
superior family against the inferior, it shows six instances of agreement with the 
inferior class against the superior where the latter is plainly wrong. The same 
characteristic of partial coincidence with both groups was traced by Dindorf 
(Preface to the Oxford edition of 1855, p. viii) in the quotations from the 
Anabasis in Athenaeus. This however is a debateable point and need not be 
insisted upon. In any case the papyrus may be taken to represent not un- 
fairly the tradition of the first few centuries of the Christian era; and it becomes 
very questionable whether modern critics have not carried their preference for 
one group of MSS. somewhat too far. Gemoll, for instance, makes it the principle 
of his recent edition only to have recourse to other evidence where the reading | 
of C is patently erroneous. This is no doubt a convenient and practical 
method ; but its defects should not be lost sight of.

it is = robable that the papyrus read [xe, with ABCE. These MSS., however, have éxddre

words are together just the length of one of the papyrus lines. We may then assume 
that the archetype followed the order found in ABCE ol8a alpeOévra: alpedévra olga

IV. MISCELLANEOUS LITERARY FRAGMENTS 


464. ASTROLOGICAL EPIGRAMS. 
25:4 X 23-2 cm. Late third century. 


THE following series of epigrams is written upon the verso of the papyrus the 
recto of which contains the fragment of a rhetorical treatise in Doric dialect (410). 
They are in hexameters or elegiacs and of varying length, the longest preserved 
not exceeding six lines. Unfortunately the papyrus is both broken and rubbed, 
and the difficulties of decipherment are increased by the character of the hand, 
an irregular sloping semi-uncial of about the end of the third century, and by 
the badness of the Greek. Thus but one of the epigrams (ll. 12-6) is really 
intelligible, and that first requires some emendation. Enough however remains 
to show that the collection, or at least this part of it, was primarily astrological 
in character; see e.g. Il. 5, 13-6, 48, 58. Prefixed to each epigram is a short 
heading giving the subject of what follows, the prevailing topic being the family 
—healthy or unhealthy children (Il. 12-23), childlessness and its opposite (ll. 40-_ 
50, 57 sqq.). The literary merit of the composition is small. The several verses 
are often written continuously, and the lines are irregular in length. Marks of 
elision are occasionally inserted, and a stop occurs at the end of 1. 46.

126 THE OXYRHYNCHUS PAPYRI 


465. ASTROLOGICAL CALENDAR. 
Height 26-5 cm. Late second century. 


The vecto of this long but imperfectly preserved papyrus contains a list 
of persons with their ages, written in second century cursive. On the verso 
is an astrological calendar in an uncial hand which we should also ascribe to 
the second century rather than to the third. There are parts of nine columns 
in all, but of these only the first is tolerably complete. We omit the second 
and ninth, and those parts of the other columns which are too fragmentary 
to yield any sense. : 

The scheme of the calendar is as follows. The year is divided into weeks 
of five days, instead of the more usual seven or ten. Each of these weeks of 
five days corresponds to the sixth part of one of the signs or constellations of 
the zodiac. Lines 10-44 refer to Pharmouthi 16-20; the details concerning 
Pharmouthi 20-25 probably began in Col. ii and were continued in one or more 
columns which may have been lost between Cols. ii and iii. Lines 60-98 refer 
to Pharmouthi 26-30, Il. 99-134 to Pachon 1-5. With |. 135 begins the account 
of Pachon 6-10, as is indicated by the remaining letters Ila[xav ¢ €ws ¢; this 
continues up to 1. 196. The account of Pachon 11-15 occupies ll. 197-212 
.and perhaps Col. viii as well. The same formula is followed in the entries 
concerning each group of five days. First comes a brief astronomical statement 
of the relation between the part of the month under consideration and one of 
the signs or constellations of the zodiac, probably, as Mr. Smyly has suggested 
(l. 11, note), the constellation which was rising just before dawn during that 
period. Next we have the name of the presiding deity who is sometimes male, 
sometimes female, and the interpretation of it, generally introduced by the 
phrase pynvie Aێywv re (e.g. Il. 13 and 200). This is succeeded by a detailed 
description of the rvzos of the divinity, who is represented as a statue, partly 
human, partly animal. Then follows an elaborate account of the omens, signs, 
portents, and favourable and unfavourable influences, characteristic of the period 
presided over by the deity in question, which is introduced by the words 
dnAot ody, and concludes with a statement of the particular form of sickness 
(a4ppéornua) peculiar to the period. To this account of the presiding deity 
is in one place (Il. 159 sqq.) added a description of her son, which proceeds 
on the same lines as that of the goddess herself, and ends with directions for 
making medical prescriptions (Il. 190-6; cf. 1. 195, note). 

The papyrus, which bears distinct marks of its Egyptian origin (cf. the local 


465. MISCELLANEOUS LITERARY FRAGMENTS I27 


references in ll. 25 and 222), presents a striking resemblance to an astrological 
fragment from Egypt now at Munich, recently published with a commentary 
by Boll (Archiv, I. pp. 492sqq.). The Munich fragment, which is written 
on vellum and is several centuries later than the papyrus, also gives a list of 
deities with an account of the signs, events, and sicknesses associated with them, 
but is arranged on a somewhat different plan, the deities being connected not 
with particular groups of days, but with various stars or constellations, which 
are numbered so as to form a series. Both the Munich and Oxyrhynchus 
fragments recall in many details the technical phraseology of astrologers which 
is known from the Zetrabiblos of Ptolemy and the fragments of Porphyry; 
cf. the references given by Boll for the Munich fragment (Archzv, I. p. 498) with 
the parallel passages in the papyrus, which supplies more astrological and less 
astronomical information. Dr. Boll, to whom we are indebted for several valuable 
suggestions and references, observing that the god of the 11th-15th degrees 
of Pisces is the second, not, as might be expected, the third (1. 199), infers 
that a distinction is drawn in the papyrus between (1) the superior eof who 
preside over each ten days, but more especially over the first five, and 
of whom the first mentioned in each month seems to be described as the 
god of the month (1. 105), and (2) the inferior divinities called xparatof (1. 12) 
Or Hyovpevor (I. 20, note) who preside over the 6th-1oth, 16th-2o0th, and 26th-goth 
days in each month. The superior deities he identifies with the Egyptian 
decans, whose fantastic names, known from Egyptian inscriptions, Greek and 
Roman writers, and magical papyri, have a resemblance to those of the divinities 
mentioned in the papyrus (Il. 13, 160, and 200), especially, as Mr. Smyly has 
pointed out (I. 200, note), in one instance. 

With regard to the xparawf the only source of information hitherto 
known was a remark by Porphyry in the letter to Anebo (Euseb. Praepar. 
Evang. iii. 4), referring to Chaeremon (who wrote in the time of Nero) Xaipjpwv

onpewces. This description of the Zadpertxtaxd, as Boll remarks, corresponds 
so clearly with the contents of the papyrus that the latter is to be regarded 
either as a fragment of the Zadpemytaxa or as derived from it through an 
intermediary author. The Salmenichiaka (or Salmeschoinaka), which according 
to Iamblichus were pépos rs Bpaxvraroy trav ‘Eppaixay diiardgewy, must have been 
written not later than in the second century B.C., for the astrological treatises 


128 THE OXYRHYNCHUS PAPYRI 


of Nechepso-Petosiris (about 100 B.C. according to Kroll) are based on them: 
The explanation of the remarkable title DaApenysaxd is a difficult problem ; cf. 
Boll in Zeitschr. f. Aegypt. Sprache, xxxix. p. 152, and his Sphaera, pp. 376 sqq. 

This view of the early date of the Salmenichiaka is confirmed by a study 
of the papyrus. Though the scanty astronomical details probably afford no 
indication that the present arrangement of the text is earlier than the end of 
the second century (cf. 1. 11, note), there are other grounds for supposing 
that it is based on much older material. It is noticeable that there is nowhere 
any reference to the Romans, or even to any titles or institutions peculiar to 
the Roman period in Egypt; while the frequent mentions of Baceis suggest 
a Ptolemaic background. 

The text contains numerous errors, and the archetype from which the scribe 
was copying seems to have been in parts illegible or imperfect, for he sometimes 
leaves blank spaces indicating a lacuna; cf. 1. 24, note.

zoth of Aquarius, which (sc. {g8:ov) is the month Pharmouthi.’ The interpretation of the 
astronomical data in the papyrus turns upon the question whether by S&poxdou, 2xGver «.r.A. the 
signs or the constellations of the zodiac are meant’. We are indebted to Mr. J. G. Smyly 


1 For those who are unfamiliar with ancient astronomy we quote Mr. Smyly’s explanation of the 
difference between the signs and constellations of the zodiac. ‘The constellations of the zodiac are twelve 
in number, represented by somewhat arbitrary figures of men and animals, of unknown antiquity; they are 
irregular in size and position, and some consider that in Egypt they were connected with the equator rather 
than with the ecliptic. The signs of the zodiac, on the other hand, are exactly equal in size, each con- 


a 2S ° THE OXYRHYNCHUS PAPYRI 


for the following valuable note upon the passage. His explanation of the relation of 
the zodiac to the Egyptian year is not only new but serves to clear away many difficulties 
and apparent inconsistencies arising from the various references to it. ‘It is clear from 
]. 100 that Pisces began with Pachon 1; thus the compiler of the calendar identified the 
months of the Egyptian year with the signs or with the constellations of the zodiac: Thoth 
==Cancer, Phaophi=Leo, Athur= Virgo, Choiak= Libra, Tubi=Scorpio, Mecheir=Sagit- 
tarius, Phamenoth=Capricorn, Pharmouthi= Aquarius, Pachon = Pisces, Pauni = Aries, 
Epeiph= Taurus, Mesore=Gemini. At first sight this would seem to indicate a tropical 
solar year beginning with the summer solstice on Thoth 1, the months being determined 
by the signs of the zodiac through which the sun was passing. There is, however, very 
little evidence for an Egyptian year which began at the summer solstice and much for one 
beginning at the heliacal rising of Sirius, and in the second century these dates differed by 
nearly a month, the solstice taking place on June 24 (Julian) and the rising of Sirius on 
July 20 (Julian), It is therefore much more probable that the year in quéstion was a 
sidereal year regulated by the heliacal rising of Sirius (cf. the circumstance that in all the 
lists Sothis was the first decan of Cancer), and that the month in relation to the zodiac 
was determined not by the sign through which the sun was passing, but by the constellation 
which was the last to rise before dawn. The decans would thus be dpocxorotrres at the 
birth of the days over which they presided, and this suggestion is confirmed by the fact 
that in P. Brit. Mus. 98. 15 the decans are called of Aaumpol Ag apooxérur. If the calendar 
refers to a year of this kind the five intercalary days must have been taken into account, 
as well as a sixth intercalary day every fourth year; but these days were always regarded 
by the Egyptians as outside the year, and did not interfere with the convenient but 
inaccurate practice of dividing the ecliptic into 360 degrees, each of which corresponded 
to one day. Moreover the difficulty is considerably diminished if, as is .probable, the 
decans are regarded not as fractions of the circle of the ecliptic, but as stars or groups 
of stars rising just before dawn. In this calendar the intercalary days would not have been 
under the presidency of any of the thirty-six decans or their xpatai, but each of them 
would have been dedicated to one of the five great gods of the Osirian circle, Osiris, 
Aroueris, Typhon, Isis and Nephthys, who were said to have been born on those days. It 
has long been a matter of dispute whether this year, supposing it to have existed, was divided 
into Months bearing the same names as the months of the ordinary annus vagus. The 
papyrus seems (to indicate that this was the case; but its late date prevents the evidence 
from being conclusive, for it may well have been drawn up by someone who was acquainted 
with the two traditions that the Egyptian year began with Cancer and also that it began 
with Thoth 1, and who combined his information by identifying the two years. 

It is just possible to explain the papyrus from the usual point of view that the month 
is determined by the sign of the zodiac through which the sun was passing, but this involves 
very great difficulties. In the Pseudo-Gemini .Calendarium (Wachsmuth’s ed. of Lydus, 
p. 183) we find roy 8¢ d8poxdov Siaropeverat 6 FAcos €v yyépas A. These thirty days correspond 
to Jan. 23-Feb. 21 on the Julian calendar, and since. Pharmouthi 16-20 on. the, same 
taining 30 degrees of the ecliptic; they are measured from the spring equinox, which is determined by 
the intersection of the equator and the ecliptic. The position of this point among the stars is not fixed, 
but slips slowly backward along the ecliptic; this is the precession of the equinoxes, With a most un+ 
fortunate lack of imagination astronomers since the time of Ptolemy have called these divisions by the same 
names as the constellations, which often gives rise to great confusion unless we know definitely which is 
referred to. Thus at present the vernal equinoctial point, though retaining the name “‘ First point of Aries,” 
is not in the constellation of Aries, but owing to the precession has shifted about 30° into the constellation 


Pisces. The constellations of the zodiac however (apart from variations in size) very nearly coincided with 
the signs in the second century of our era.’ .

calendar correspond to April 11-15 the sun cannot have been in Aquarius during those 
five days if the papyrus was drawn up according to the Alexandrian (i.e. Julian) calendar. 
But especially in astrological calculations in papyri of the Roman period the calendar 
kara rovs dpyaious is frequently found (cf. P. Oxy. II. p. 138), and if we suppose that 
that reckoning was employed by the writer of this papyrus, we find that the sun was 
in Aquarius during Pharmouthi 16-20 from a.p. 196-291. Similarly with regard to the 
corresponding entry concerning Pachon 11-15 (I. 198), the sun would on the calendar 
xara rovs dpxaiovs be in Pisces during those five days from a.p. 168-268. ‘These dates 
are only approximate because the time at which the sun enters the signs of the zodiac 
varies (in the Julian calendar) from century to century.’ | 


12-42. ‘The presiding deity of that season, his name is Nebu, of which the 
interpretation is that he is the lord of wars and of reason. He is represented by an 
upright statue with the face of a vulture, wearing a diadem upon his head, and with 
the face of a serpent behind, having two wings and the feet of a lion and holding four 
swords, both faces being of gold. He signifies that the governor will... evils; there shall 
be war, dislike and battle, and he will take counsel with the people as a friend. And 
during his rule there shall be a rebel and there shall be war, and many cities of Egypt 
will perish on account of the rebel, for the signs of the time are of war and dislike and 
battle, and there shall be destruction (of many ?). In this time many shall live by 
stealth (?), and some shall live by singing and dancing, and some by chanting in the 
temples, and some by singing at banquets with sweet voices and they end well. This 
deity causes by reason the conqueror to be conquered and the conquered to conquer, 
and many live by receiving gratuities and registering and collecting from men what 
they have drunk up, and some live by ... as servants. He causes men to be lame 
because one foot... The sickness in this season is in the intestines and bowels, and

The name of the second decan in Pisces according to the papyrus is very likely 
connected with the name of the first decan according to Hermes, while the description 
bears great resemblance to that of the third. Similarly the name of the first decan of the 
papyrus ((2)ap6vw? ; cf. note on 1. 105) may well be connected with Zoam¢i, the second 
in Hermes’ list. 


222-9. ‘This deity causes long old age, until a man be bent by old age; he

466. DrrREcTIONS FOR WRESTLING. 
13°5 X 18:3 cm. Second century. 


This papyrus consists of a series of short sections giving directions for 
performing certain bodily gestures, and in each case ending with the verb wAé£ov. 
As Mr. Smyly suggests, the purpose of these directions no doubt relates to the 
different grips in wrestling. That instructions in the palaestra were given in 
this way is shown by two curious passages, Lucian, Astzus 9-10 (pp. 576-8) 
and Anth. Pal. xii. 206. airds in Il. 25 and 30-1 means ‘ your opponent,’ and 
atry in 1. 19 probably refers to the hand. 

The papyrus, which we should ascribe to the second century, is written 
in a good-sized uncial hand with a tendency to link the letters together by short 
horizontal strokes. Parts of three columns are preserved, of which we print the 
first two, keeping the punctuation of the original.

This papyrus, which contained on the recéo official correspondence (in which

was used for writing a series of grammatical rules in several columns. Of these 
one column is completely preserved, and there are the beginnings of lines of the 
next, written in an irregular semi-uncial hand of the third century. The rules, 
which are of an elementary character, deal, so far as the fragment goes, with 
the conjugation of the contracted (or, as they are called, ‘ perispome’) verbs.

16-7 X19 cm. Third century. 


A leaf, of which the top is lost, from a papyrus book written in double 
columns on a page, and containing apparently descriptions of astronomical 
instruments. The writing is a medium-sized semi-uncial of the third century. 
The high stop is found, and a comma-shaped sign is used occasionally for filling 
up short lines. For the interpretation of this papyrus we are indebted to 
Mr. J. G. Smyly. 

Lines 1~31 are the end of a description of a meoceurjpiov, of which instrument

The details are rather obscure ; and the difficulties of the technical phraseology 


142 THE OXYRHYNCHUS PAPYRI 


are increased by the inaccuracies of the papyrus, which throughout contains 
frequent errors especially with regard to numbers. These have strokes, either 
horizontal or slanting, over them, but no distinction is maintained between 
ordinary numerals and fractions. A mention of a BiBdos occurs in 1. 24, which 
probably refers to the books of Hermes (cf. note ad /oc.), perhaps the authority 
upon which the present treatise is based. 

Lines 31 to the end are concerned with the construction of a epodAdéy:oy 
or time-piece, shaped something like a flower-pot. The figure, which in 1, 35 
is called a dAyuloxos, appears to be a frustum of a right cone, of which a 
vertical central section is a quadrilateral, having two sides horizontal and 
parallel, and the other two inclined at equal angles to the horizon. In the 
present case the length of the upper line is 24 d3dxrvAo, that of the parallel 
lower line or base (zv6pyyv) is 12, and the vertical depth is 18. The operations 
performed in Il. 38-46 are (1) add together the lengths of the top and base, 


(2) divide by 2, (3) multiply by 3, result x, (4) find , (5) find (6) multiply = 


by 3? result y (for the nature of the last process cf. 1.45, note). The lines 


lost between Il. 46 and 47 probably contained a statement that if a series of 
horizontal lines were drawn across the original figure at distances of 1 ddxrvAos 
from each other, there would be 19 such lines and 18 figures of the same kind 
as the original (since the height of the figure is 18 ddxrvAo:). The lengths of 
the lines will form an arithmetical progression, each line being # dd«rvAos shorter 
than the preceding, i.e. they diminish xara dfpotpoy (1. 48). These quadrilateral 
figures are all subjected to the same process as the original, but the writer 
displays considerable ingenuity in varying his expressions. Probably the vessel 
was filled with water, and time was calculated by the nearly uniform descent of 
the surface caused by the water running through a small hole in the centre 
of the base. .

§. Kuvds mpooryopiay: there seems to have been a series of summations of consecutive 
numbers, of which a specimen is given in the following lines:—15 + 16 + 17 + etc.

Perhaps arithmetical progressions went by this name.

house of Horus, and extends for 30 complete yépa:, making up the number of days from

29% days. Without knowing more about the construction and use of the weocevrnpwy 
it is difficult to say what ob perahépovow wWidoy in ]. 17 means, ‘The reason assigned

of the apoAdyoy and the cvvoda and dwricpoi of the sun and moon affords a noteworthy 
point of contact with the papyrus.

31-46. ‘The calculation of the construction of time-pieces is thus given, Make 
a dApioxos with an upper line of 24 ddxrvAos, a base of 12 ddervAo, and a depth of 18 ddxrvdce, 
If we add the 24 ddervdo to the 12 ddervda of the base the result will be 36 &dervdos; 
4 of this is 18, multiplying, on account of the round surface, by 3 we obtain 54; 4 of this 
is 18, 4 is 134; 18 multiplied by 134 makes 243.’ 

45. 1. most on él cy (fusov) Zuy. The last process consists of the multiplication of the 


two preceding figures (; and ) » though it is incorrectly performed here as in the corre- 


sponding passages of the various ypappai. In the first ypappy (1. 57) 239 x 173 = 42074, 
for which the papyrus has 300,, (cf. note ad /oc.); in the second (Il. 64-5) 23 x 173 = 3963, 
for which the papyrus has in 1. 65 3154 te but cf. 1. 66, where the total 3964 is reached; 
in the third the product is lost; in the fourth (1. 71) 164 x 214 (as is expressly indicated 
by the papyrus) makes 352,'5, for which the text has 5,4; in the fifth (ll. 77-8) 21 x 153 
= 3303, for which the text has 3703; in-the sixth (ll. 83-4) 204 x 16} = 310,45, for which 
the text has 300,4,. 

The whole process may be explained in this way. 

Let AB and CD be two successive ypappai, Half of 


AB + CD is the length of EF drawn halfway between A B 
the two lines. This is multiplied by 3 da rjv wepsepiay 
(I. 43): if the writer took the ratio of the circumference E 


of a circle to its diameter to be 3 instead of 1, the result 
will be the circumference of the circle described on EF 
as diameter. This is divided by 3 (i.e. by ), giving Cc 
the diameter again. The diameter is then multiplied. 
by a quarter of the circumference (in modern language 


D 


2r x a = nr’, where r is the radius), giving the area of the circle. If now the writer 


made the specious but incorrect assumption that the volume of the frustum of the cone 
contained between the planes AB and CD was equal to that of the cylinder of equal height 
standing on the circle described on EF as diameter, then since the distance between AB 
and CD is 1 ddervdos he would have regarded his result as the volume expressed in cubic 
ddervior, The error arising from this assumption is comparatively small in the present case. 
If the instrument in question were a water-clock, a knowledge of this volume would be 
of great importance. 

46. wot ovrws 23: the meaning of this number, which corresponds to the revised 
totals in ll. 66, 73, 79 and 85 after a certain deduction has been made from the totals 
obtained previously (cf. |. 45, note), is obscure. 

48-57. ‘The first line is therefore 24 8dervkoc in length; twice this number is 48, 
subtract 4, the remainder is 474, half of this is 23%, this multiplied by 3 makes 71, 
4 of this is 23%, and 4 is 17%, total 420,45.’ On the relation of this figure to the original 
one see introd. 

50. There is not room for daxrvdwy written out, but the word may have been 
abbreviated. The process of doubling the upper side and then subtracting 4 is equivalent 
to adding together the lengths of the two opposite sides ; cf. ll. 38-40. 

54. The reading of the first two letters is very doubtful, but the sense is made certain 
by a comparison with the parallel passages in Il. 75 and 81, émi rd rpiro», as the arith- 

L 


146 : THE OXYRHYNCHUS PAPYRI 


metic in the parallel passages (cf. 1. 45, note) shows, is a mistake for ém y, i.e. multiplica- 
tion by 3. This abnormal use of an arithmetical term is immediately followed by another, 
8evrepow instead of Sivospow for 2, and the occurrence of these irregularities is traceable to 
the incorrect verbal interpretation of the figures y and 8. The method of expressing 3 in 
l. 56 (2+ 45) is also unusual. 

67. Tif: 1. uee’B’,cf. 1. 45, note. The confusion of v and fr is easy and the space left 
between r and « points to an omission. rr 

58-66. ‘The second figure consists of 234 Sdervdo, twice this makes 46%, subtract 4 
for the contraction, the remainder is 46, 4 is 23, 3 times this is 69, 4 of this is 23, 
4 is 174, this multiplied by 23 makes 3963, subtract 34, the remainder is 39634.’ 

The process up to Ll. 64 is the same as in the previous figure. The numbers in ll. 64—7 
are clearly very corrupt, but if cy in 1. 64 be corrected to xy the result becomes intelligible. 
172x 23 gives 3963, i.e. r4g¢8v8', which has been corrupted to re (juov) ce’; but after 
subtracting the last fraction the total in 1. 66 is nearly correct ; cf. 1. 45, note. 

62. [ris] oviclroAnjs: this means that 2 ddervdos is subtracted because each ypappy is 
both shorter than the one preceding and larger than the one following by 2 8acrvAos. 3

yo-1. The figures, as usual, are very corrupt; 16} x 212 = 352,3;, instead of which 
the text has in Ll. 71 5,4. The correct figure mf’8’ seems to have been transferred to 
l. 7o and there to have been corrupted into the meaningless rao8. Though the final 8 
is not certain, ré ica cannot be read, even if it made sense. The figures 4,4, in 1. 73 
are a continuation of the original error 5,4; for 35274;; cf. note on |. 45. 

%3. At this point the writer becomes more concise; « means the fifth ypaypy, which 
is 214 ddervdoc in length. The usual operations are performed correctly as far as 1. 77. 
In 1. 78 pa is an error for xa, and 370% should be 3303; cf. note on 1. 45. The number ~ 
at the end of 1. 79 should probably be 329,4. 

80-1. ‘The sixth (ypayyn) is 20% (adxrvdc), which become 40% when the % has 
been subtracted.’ This is a short way of saying that when all the operations up 
to the a of the % have been performed, the result is 403 (20%x2 = 414; 
414—2 = 408).

471. SPEECH OF AN ADVOCATE. 
30-5 X 46-5 cm. Second century. 


TuHIs long papyrus, written in a semi-uncial hand and elaborately punctuated 
like a literary work, contains part of a speech of an advocate directed against 
a person whose name is apparently Maximus. The precise point at issue is not 
clear. There are accusations concerning money-lending, and some question 
connected with the holding of the office of gymnasiarch arises, but the greater 
part of the speech consists of an outspoken denunciation of the relations of 
Maximus to a certain boy. That Maximus was or had been a very high official 
is shown by several passages; cf. the references in I. 54 to the regal state 
assumed by him, in Il. 66-72 to the crowd of clients, in ll. 95-7 to petitions 
made to him and his power to confiscate property, and in ll. 124~30 to his 
journeys throughout Egypt. These allusions suit no one so well as the praefect 
himself, and the view that Maximus had been praefect of Egypt is supported by 
1. 22, where é[slapyefas is the most probable reading. On this hypothesis the 
xuptos whose rvxn is appealed to by witnesses in 1. 65 and before whom this 
speech was delivered, was more probably the reigning emperor (cf. 1. 32, where 
xUptos means the emperor) than the praefect in office. Whether however this 
speech was really delivered or is a composition in the style for instance of 38 
(cf. Bauer, Archiv, I. pp. 29 sqq.) may be doubted. It is difficult to imagine the 
circumstances under which such violent accusations would actually be made, 
and unfortunately the identity of Maximus is far from clear. The only second 
century praefect known to have borne that name is Vibius Maximus (A.D. 103-7), 
but the papyrus probably belongs to the age of Hadrian or the Antonines. 

Out of six columns the first (not printed) has only the ends of a few lines, 
while the sixth has lost the ends of lines, and the second and fifth are disfigured 
by considerable lacunae. Two kinds of stops, the high and low point, are 
employed and one or two accents and breathings occur. The papyrus has been 
subjected to much revision, additions to or recastings of the main text being 
appended at the bottom of Cols. ii-v by a different hand. The position at

2. The critical mark opposite this line perhaps indicates that the adscript at the 
bottom of the column was to be inserted at this point. But from internal evidence 
the adscript would seem more appropriate to Il. 21-32, where the yupvacupyia is referred 
to. There is also a v-shaped mark opposite 1. 7. 

2-110. ‘I will add a fact, my lord, which will, I expect, excite your wonder and 
disbelief until we read the documents. He condemned people to pay interest for a period 
at which in some cases they had not yet even received the loan. What does he say? 
Owing to your absence you were ignorant of the letters written to you about this? 
These letters will still better and more clearly exhibit Maximus’ exactness and care in this 
matter. For the last memorandum confirms (the question of) his slave (?) and his love 
for the youth.... Up to the rgth year of the Emperor Berenicianus will be gymnasiarch 
and in the 2gth Anicetus will hold that office. What reason had you for (suppressing ?) 
all this? Will you say that you were deceived or that you took bribes? It is best to 
acknowledge only the lesser fault. But we assert not that you took a reward but that 
you gave one. For why did a boy of 17 years dine with you every day? Each of 
these witnesses whenever he was invited to join the banquet (it was not easy when once 
you had assumed regal state to obtain such favours from you) saw the boy at the party, 
both with his father and alone, and each saw the shameless look and shameless goings 
to and fro of the lovers. ... Why did he greet him every day? ‘They bear evidence 
swearing by your Fortune, my lord, that while they were waiting to salute him and 
gathered at the door they saw the boy coming out of the bed-chamber alone, showing signs 
of his intercourse with him. For when once accustomed to his shame this handsome 
and rich youth gave himself airs and became so impudent that he sported with and clasped 
the hands of Eutychus the chamberlain in the presence of every one and laughed long 
and freely in the middle of the clients. He was not stupid, and even showed off to 
the borrowers what he had been doing. Why then did not you with your modesty 
and extreme austerity stop him? If a poor man wearing cheap clothes asks you a favour, 
you order his property and that of his wife and friends to be confiscated, and the man 
who took his seat at the theatre without wearing white garments you delivered to death, 
whereas a still beardless ... and handsome youth you kept all day in the praetorium and 
did not send him any longer to the schools and the exercises proper for the young .. . you 
travel about the whole of Egypt with the youth. Did not a boy of 17 years accompany 
you to the judgement-seat in the public court? 2 then was he by your side both at 
Memphis and at Pelusium and wherever you were?...

472. SPEECH OF AN ADVOCATE. 
30°5 X 35°56 Cm. About a.p. 130. 


This papyrus contains the concluding part of a speech in defence by an 
advocate. The first column, which consists only of ends of lines, is not printed, 


152 THE OXYRHYNCHUS PAPYRI 


the second and third are practically complete. The orator’s client was a woman 
called Hermione, against whom various charges of attempted poisoning, and 
fraud in connexion with a supposed mortgage, had been brought by a man whose 
name does not appear here, but was Sarapion, if, as is almost certain, 486 is 
concerned with the same dispute. An epistrategus is mentioned in the first 
column, and it is probable that the proceedings took place about A.D. 130 before 
Claudius Quintianus at the trial mentioned in 486. 8 and 26, from which passages 
we learn that the epistrategus referred the case to the praefect. The handwriting 
of the papyrus is very like that of the Petition of Dionysia (287), written in the 
reign of Commodus, and this copy of the speech may have been made some 
years after it was delivered.

‘For it was from his house that he came out saying that he had been pvisoned, 
and when he came out of Hermione’s house he neither told any one that he noticed 
anything nor had the least suspicion, but it was from the house of himself and his son 
and future heir that he came forth saying that he had been poisoned. He had indeed 
reasons for administering poison to himself which many others have had in preferring 
death to life ; for he was ruined by creditors and at his wit’s end: but if any one really plotted 
against him, his son is the most likely person. Why he brought the accusation is now 
clear. He may indeed have had other troubles during the period of his stewardship, but 
the case: shows that he was jealous of her without her knowledge and called himself 
her husband, but since she did not vouchsafe him this title, he suffered like a lover 
and did not wish her to outlive him. If they say that the slave Smaragdus has disappeared 
being himself accused of having stolen the mortgage—he only asserts that a mortgage 
was made in order that it might be stolen; for it is impossible for that to have been stolen 
which neither ever existed at all nor could exist, nor can a mortgage have been drawn up, 
since neither the buyer knew how to write nor the present defendant Hermione, nor does 
a stranger when another woman is registered as mortgagee himself issue a deed of 
mortgage. So from whom could he say that he had received the mortgage? From 
whichever quarter he did so, it was invalid. And if a slave has run away, this is no 
argument against his master. Moreover the division also helps to show that there never 
was any mortgage. For persons who are registered as mortgagees have only their name 
inserted in deeds and do not claim the property which has been registered in mortgage, 
but the buyer has clearly claimed the property and been in enjoyment of it ever since 
she bought it, while he since he sold it has no longer been enjoying it, but administering the 
property of the mother as a steward and attacking my clients. If they say that a joint 
agreement was made between the daughter and Hermione for 1§0 jars, to be produced 
from these vineyards which she (Dionysia) bought, we assert that all this has nothing to do 
with the plaintiff. For if the daughter did make an agreement with the mother, this 
does not afford them an excuse for calumnies. That however did not happen at the 
same period, but nearly a whole year afterwards, and the provision of 150 jars is nothing 
as security for 4 talents, for they are the interest upon only 1 talent. Again, if there 
had been security given to the supposed seller, would the daughter have pledged herself 
to the State by another deed when she was liable to be deprived of the property whenever 
he chose? The facts about the provision are as follows: Hermione had three children, 
Aphro ..., Dionysia ... Dionysia entreated her mother not to leave her with only what 
had already been used up, but to give her something since she was dependent upon only 
a single resource, whereupon Hermione pays her 14 talents. But Dionysia, in order that 
her mother may not in her lifetime be deprived of that sum, pays instead of interest every 
year this provision, and this very statement is contained in the mutual agreement.’ 


478. OFFICIAL 155 


g. ravry: in the translation we have connected this with 8Ao», but it may be dependent 
upon éayverxev, sc. Hermione. 

10. mpovoias ypdvos means the period when the accuser was acting aS mspovonrns of 
Hermione; cf. 1]. 28. 

11. avrjv: Hermione is the last person mentioned by name, but seeing that she was 
old enough to be the mother of three children, it is perhaps more probable that the person 
meant is Dionysia, who is the dyopdcaca of 1. 18; cf. 1. 31 and 486. 4. 

15. riorw: for the point at issue in connexion with this supposed document cf. 486. 
4-8 and 22-4. Dionysia claimed to have bought a vineyard from the accuser’s father, 
while the plaintiff asserted that it had been only mortgaged to her, and accused Smaragdus, 
the slave of Dionysia or Hermione, with having stolen the bond of mortgage. 

25. ovxers: the context requires ofmw. Perhaps odxér: has been introduced from 1. 27. 

28. ris pyrpés means Hermione, as distinguished from ‘the daughter’ (Dionysia) ; 
cf. 1, 30. 

36. These four talents seem to have been the sum which, according to the accuser, 
Dionysia had borrowed from Hermione and advanced to him upon the security of the 
vineyard, and the 150 jars of wine were according to him interest upon the money 
borrowed by Dionysia. To this the orator replies that the 150 jars were paid by Dionysia 
to Hermione as interest upon a talent and a half given her by Hermione. 


473. DECREE IN HoNouR OF A GYMNASIARCH. 
21:4 X 29:6 cm. A.D. 138-160. 


A resolution, dated in the reign of Antoninus Pius, of the magistrates and 
people’ of Oxyrhynchus, together with the resident Roman and Alexandrian | 
citizens, to honour a gymnasiarch by setting up a statue, a full-length portrait, 
and three shields. Owing to the loss of from 30-40 letters at the begin- 
nings of lines, the name of this individual is not known. The enumeration 
of his public services mentions his ‘unstinted provision of unguents,’ his con- 
tributions to the fund for theatrical displays (cf. 519), and his restoration 
of the baths and ‘greater thermae’; cf. P. Amh. 70, a letter of the magistrates 
of Hermopolis concerning the expenses incurred by gymnasiarchs. 

Though writing a large and handsome semi-uncial hand, the scribe seems to 
have committed several errors.

. 474. CIRCULAR TO OFFICIALS. 


34:6 18-5 cm. A.D. 184? 


This papyrus contains copies of three letters written by a high functionary, 
Plautius Italus, to various officials. The first (Il. 1-8) is addressed to the 
strategi and basilico-grammateis of several nomes, which were apparently 
enumerated in Il. 8-9, and directs their attention to the following letter (Il. Lo—30) 
from himself to the strategus of the Tanite nome, reprimanding him and the 
basilico-grammateus for peculations. This is succeeded (ll. 31-41) by another 
letter to the same set of officials as those addressed in the first, forbidding 
in more general and peremptory terms the practice of diverting the imperial 
revenues to the ‘salaries’ of the principal revenue-officers of the nomes. The 
third letter is complete, but a large portion of the first two is hopelessly illegible 
owing to the staining of the papyrus. The circulars were issued on December 16 





474. OFFICIAL 157 


in the 25th year of an unnamed emperor, who must however be Commodus 
or Caracalla, since none of the others reigned so long. The handwriting, which 
suggests the second century rather than the third, is in favour of the earlier date. 
What position Plautius Italus held is not certain. If the reigning emperor was 
Commodus, it is possible that he was the praefect in A.D. 184, but this is not 
very likely, since Longaeus Rufus was praefect in May 185 (287. vi. 15, cf. 
P. Amh. 107), and Veturius Macrinus in July 181 (De Ricci, Proc. Soc. Bibl. 
Arch. 1902, p. 67) and perhaps in May 183 (B. G. U. 847). December 16, 216, 
falls in the praefecture of Valerius Datus (De Ricci, l.c. p. 100). It is more 
probable that Plautius Italus was d:ocnrjs or perhaps fos Adyos. Since his 
letters are addressed to officials of nomes in the Delta as well as of, pre- 
sumably, the Oxyrhynchite nome, it is hardly possible that he was an 
epistrategus.

20-7. The sense of this sentence, which stands between two imperatives, is very. 
obscure. éxeivos in 1. 22 and avrov in ]. 24 refer presumably to the basilico-grammateus, 
who is also the subject of erésxyer. After vos in 1. 22 three or four letters may be lost. «at 
ovdév—repryeypaypévow seems to be a parenthetical remark. The unauthorized payment to 
the basilico-grammateus in |. 26 is further explained by Il. 35 sqq., since 1. 38 probably 
refers back to the second letter. 

31-41. ‘(Copy) of another (letter), Plautius Italus to the strategi and basilico- 
grammateis of the hereinafter-mentioned nomes, greeting. On examining the accounts 
of the money revenue I discovered that certain of the strategi and basilico-grammateis 
had paid themselves salaries for some period on their own responsibility, in defiance 
rather than obedience to the proclamations. Thereupon I sent them a suitable admonition, 
and I now make this second order applying to all that the imperial moneys are not to 
be touched without leave.’ 

41. xuptaxo xpyyaros: i.e. the revenue of the xupiaxds Adyes, on which see P. Meyer in 
Festschr. 3u O. Hirschfeld p. 139. His view that «vpeaxds Adyos = fiscus (Stoixnors) as 
opposed to @Wéos Adyos is true in most instances, but a notable exception occurs in P. Catt.

477. REGISTRATION OF AN EPHEBUS, 
15:7 X I1°3 Cm. A.D. 132-3. 


This interesting papyrus is an application addressed to Marcus Claudius 
Serenus, exegetes and holder of a variety of titles, and to other Alexandrian 
officials, from Ammonius, a citizen of Alexandria, who wished his son to be 
registered among the ephedi of the following year. At Athens the doxipacla 
and enrolment of é$78o. took place at the age of 18, when they were 
received into their tribe and deme, and attained their legal majority, though 
they did not obtain full civic rights until the age of 21. At Alexandria 
it appears from a Tebtunis papyrus of the reign of Trajan that admission 
to the ranks of the épn8o: was possible at a much earlier age, when the

the same document that the éfn8o: were registered in numbered ovppopla.

An application addressed, as usual at Oxyrhynchus in such cases, to the 
AtBAvopiAaxes, by Dionysous, a freedwoman, requesting that her son, who had 
reached the age of 13, might be placed on the list of privileged persons 
who paid a poll-tax of only 12 drachmae, and stating the grounds of the claim. 
The evidence of this papyrus was utilized by us in a discussion of the whole 
question of éxlxpiots in P. Oxy. II. pp. 217 sqq., to which the reader is referred. 
Since the publication of that volume the subject has been treated at length 
by P. Meyer (Heerwesen der Ptolemder und Romer, pp. 109 sqq.), who however 
had not the Oxyrhynchus documents before him, and could only refer to them 
in an appendix (of. cit. pp. 219 sqq.), and by Wessely (Sztzungsb. der Akad. 
der Wissensch. in Wien, Bd. CXLII. ix), who gives an elaborate recapitulation of 
the evidence in the light of the Oxyrhynchus papyri. The results of the latter 
are on the whole in agreement with our own—more so indeed than he himself,

owing to some misunderstanding of our position, appears to realize. That the 
general sense of ézixpiots is ‘examination,’ ‘ decision,’ requires no special demon- 
stration, and the term of course is, as we remarked (P. Oxy. II. p. 220), a relative 
one. But in connexion with the poll-tax éwifxpiois and its cognates acquired 
a technical signification, being used of the process by which persons of a certain 
status were partially or wholly relieved of liability to that impost. P. Meyer 
however goes much too far in asserting that émixexpiyévos implies total exemption 
from the poll-tax, a view which he somewhat perversely tries to maintain 
(op. ctt. p. 231) in the face of our statement of the evidence derived from the 
present text. It is abundantly clear from I]. 9-10 and 31 below, that persons 
who enjoyed the privilege of paying less than the regular amount of the tax 
went through a process of éxfxpiois, and were just as much éaexexpiudvor as those 
who were entirely exempt. |

166 - THE OXYRHYNCHUS PAPYRI ° 


‘To Hadrion and Zotlus, keepers of the archives, from Dionysous freedwoman of 
Dionysia daughter of Dionysius also called Chresimus son of Dionysius, of Oxyrhynchus, 
with her guardian Eudaemon son of Menoetes, of the same city. In accordance with 
the orders concerning the selection of boys 13 years of age when their parents on both 
sides are inhabitants of the metropolis rated at 12 drachmae, I declare that my son 
Ptollis son of Phaon son of Ptollis registered in the quarter of the Square of Thoéris 
(interlinear note ‘the Kmelemus (?) quarter, as he says”) has reached the age of 13 years 
in the past 16th year of Hadrianus Caesar the lord, and that his father Phaon son of 
Ptollis son of Phaon, his mother being Athena, was an inhabitant of the metropolis rated 
at 12 drachmae as shown by a uniform poll-tax list of the 13th year of Hadrianus Caesar 
the lord at the said quarter, and is now dead, and that the father of my aforesaid patroness 
Dionysia (interlinear note “he does not agree”), Dionysius also called Chresimus son 
of Dionysius, of the same city, was similarly rated at 12 drachmae by the selection of 
the 7th year of the deified Trajan in the Lycians’ Camp quarter, and died at an advanced 
age; and I swear by the Emperor Caesar Trajanus Hadrianus Augustus that the foregoing 
statement is correct. The 17th year of the Emperor Caesar Trajanus Hadrianus Augustus, 
Tubi 13. I, Dionysous, freedwoman of Dionysia daughter of Dionysius also called 
Chresimus, have presented the declaration and sworn the oath. JI, Eudaemon son of 
Menoetes, have been appointed her guardian and wrote for her as she was illiterate.’ 


10-2. It is noticeable that the further qualification specified in the parallel passage 
of 258, e&r)ra(?) [Z}ry emi rot atrov dudpddov, is here omitted. But not improbably the 
interlinear notes on ll. 15 and 28 have some reference to such a restriction. 

15. The adscript added below this line by a different hand is a note by an official 
remarking some inconsistency between this statement of the dudodoy in which Ptollis lived 
and his own assertions. The question had an important bearing on the consideration of 
the claims for exemption, for it appears from 258. 9 that a certain permanence of residence 
was required; cf. the previous note. A similar interlinear insertion occurs in 1. 28 in 
connexion with the evidence on the mother’s side. 

22. de’ dpoddéyou Aaocypadias: the meaning of this is obscure. So far as the present 
passage goes dycAoyos might here have its ordinary sense of ‘corresponding,’ the meaning 
being that the poll-tax list of the year referred to corresponded with the statement in the 
text that the father of Ptollis was a pyrpemodirns dwd8exddpaypos. But this interpretation 
is not satisfactory in another case of the use of the phrase in B, G. U. 618. 13 éx(?) pew 
dyod(syov) Aaoyp(adgias) dvdpes 8—for so no doubt the passage should be read on the analogy 
of the present papyrus—, which occurs in a list of individuals who were responsible for 
work on the embankments. The term éudAcyos is also applied to persons, when it perhaps 
has a technical signification :—e. g. B.G. U. 560. 20 yewpyotvres dyddoyos dydpes, P. Brit. 
Mus, 259. 190-1 én) rd atrd (the preceding list being specially concerned with the poll-tax)

Palacogr. und Papyruskunde, 1. pp. 9-11. Wilcken (Osé. I. pp. 253-5), who quotes Cod. 
Theodos. xi. 24. 6. § 3 get victs gutbus adscript: sunt derelictis et gut homologi more genttlicto 
nuncupantur ad altos seu vicos seu dominos transierunl, supposes that dpudAcyos were 
a particular class of cullivators; but though that explanation would suit B.G. U. 560. 20 
it clearly cannot be brought into harmony with the passages in which dudAcyos is connected 
with Aacypapia. There is more to be said for Wessely’s view, who supposes the dpddoyos 
to be domiciled strangers subjected to the poll-tax, and refers in support of his theory to 


479. DECLARATIONS (amoypagai) 167 


the extract from the Cod. Theodos. given above. This explanation would well accord 
with P. Brit. Mus. 260. 142-3 and the Vienna papyrus, in which Jews are concerned. 
But how is it to be applied to the dpudAoyos Aaoypadia here, in which pyrporodiras dwdexadpaypos 
figure? A better interpretation of dpdAcyos in all these passages has been suggested to us 
by Mr. Smyly, who would translate it ‘ assessed at the same rate,’ i.e. in the present case at 
12 drachmae. This explanation would account for the variations in the use of the term, 
the meaning of which is relative to the context in each instance. 

26 sqq. This passage combines with B.G.U. 324 to show that slaves were placed 
on the same footing with regard to liability to the poll-tax as their masters; and we here 
learn that liberated slaves at least could even transmit their privileges to their children. 

28. For the insertion above the line see note on I. 15.

An unaddressed notice from a woman, Demetrous, expressing the wish that 
her grandson should for the future be registered at her own house. The year 
in which this papyrus is dated was not a regular census-year; the document 
was therefore supplementary of a previous return, and necessitated by the change 
of residence on the part of the boy in question, who was now living with his 
grandmother instead of his parents.

It is noteworthy that 482 is dated in A.D. 109, or just ten years later than the 
present document; and there is thus evidence for a series of four general 
registrations of real property separated by periods of approximately ten years, 
namely those in A.D. 80, 90, 99, 109, while another occurred in A.D. 129; cf. 584.

Diogenes son of Ptolemaeus son of Ptolemaeus, his mother being Tekosis daughter of 
Harthodnis, of the said city, in accordance with the will which he drew up in his lifetime 
through the record-office at the said city in the month Tubi of the first year of the deified 
Nerva, which will was unchanged at his death. And I swear by the Emperor Caesar

te. 


2. xal wémpaxa: the point of this is that when land was about to be alienated, notice 
had to be given to the BSropiraxes; cf. 483 and 287. viii. 37, note. 

6-9. This passage is a good illustration of the minute subdivision of house and land 
property, the fraction of the whole house owned by the writer being only ;%. 

18. éy inmug orabpp: cf. 506. 24, where a brmuts «Ajpes is mentioned (on the 
distinction between ora6pés and «Agpos see P. Tebt. I. p. 45), and 504. 9, where éx row 
lsmixov followed probably by some word like Acyormpiov occurs. These instances show 


172 THE OXYRHYNCHUS PAPYRI 


that the old military organization of xdrow«os in the Fayim (cf. P. Tebt. I. pp. 545 sqq. 
still survived to some extent in the Roman period; cf. P. Meyer, Heerwesen, p. 106 an 
note on 488. 5. 


483. APPLICATION FOR LEAVE TO MORTGAGE. 
24°3 X 10-7 cm. A.D. 108. 


An application, addressed to the AiBdwopvAagé by a certain Achillas, of 
a similar character to B.G. U. 184 and 379 and P. Brit. Mus. 299 and 300; 
cf. P. Oxy. II. p. 180, where part of this papyrus is quoted. There is however 
this difference between those documents and 488, that in them the applicant 
wished to part with his land, while here he apparently wished only to mortgage 
it; cf. 1. 11 of the Florence papyrus published by Vitelli, Athene e Roma iv. 
73 sqq., and 588. 488 is also noticeable for containing at the end a letter from 
the BiBrAwdvAag to the agoranomi authorizing the drawing up of the contract 
required.

3. lepéws Atds nat “Hpas call. ..: very likely these deities are in a Graecized form the 
triad commonly worshipped at Oxyrhynchus, Sarapis, Isis, and Thoéris (e.g. 46. 8). 
Sarapis and Zeus were often identified (cf. Milne, Journ. Hell. Sfud. 1901, p. 277), and 
Isis might well be identified with Hera, whose worship is rarely mentioned in Egypt 
(Milne, /.¢. p. 289). Thoéris was perhaps identified with Athena; cf. 579. 


174 THE OXYRHYNCHUS PAPYR]I 


5. Zyv[o8epov ... xrnpfolv: cf. 47.18. Our contention (P. Oxy. I. p. 102) that the 
persons who gave their names to «Ajpoe were the original grantees has recently been 
disputed by P. Meyer (Heerwesen, p. 107), who wishes to make them the owners immediately 
preceding the actual ones. This view that e.g. é« rot Mevosrfov «Anpov (45. 10) means 
no more than ras mpdrepov Mevoiriov is not only very unlikely in itself and ignores the 
preposition ¢« which indicates that the Mevocriov xAnpor was larger than the area in question, 
but it altogether fails to account for the following facts (1) the uniformly Greek character 
of the names, (2) the absence of women, (3) the frequent insertion of nationalities (e. g. 
Anpyrpiov MiAnoiou 270. 17, lov Avdiov 265. 40; cf. 506. 24 Irodepalov époou brmxot xAnpov), 
(4) the common occurrence of the same «Ajpot, e. g. that of Drimacus (250, 265, ae 
On the other hand all these facts point to the Ptolemaic origin of the persons who give 
their names to xAjpo, which, seeing that the Ptolemaic organization of catoecic land 
still survived to some extent (cf. 482. 18, note), is in no way surprising. 

30. Papevdd ZeBaorg: probably the 29th; cf. 1. 37, which was most likely written on 
the same day, and 289. i. 2. On fpyépas SeSacrai see P. Oxy. II. p. 284. 


() PETITIONS. 


484. PETITION TO THE STRATEGUS. 
17X43 0m. . A.D. 138. 


A petition sent to the strategus by Pausiris, who had been accused of fraud 
by a certain Didymus, requesting that a copy of the present /del/us should 
be served upon the son of the accuser in order to compel his attendance at 
the next sitting of the praefect’s court (conventus). The papyrus follows nearly 
the same formula as B. G. U. 226 and P. Brit. Mus. 358, on the juristic aspects 
of which documents see Mitteis, Hermes, xxx. p. 572, and Wenger, Rechts- 
historische Papyrusstudten, pp. 1c6 sqq. 

The praefect mentioned is Avidius Heliodorus, whose tenure of office 
is thus carried back to January 138, a circumstance which necessitates a recon- 
sideration of the date generally assigned to the praefecture of Valerius Eudaemon ; 
cf. note on 1. 22. 

In the upper margin is an insertion by a different hand, perhaps a number.

‘To Apolinarius, strategus, from Pausiris son of Petsiris, from the village of Sephtha, 
living at Nemera. Since Didymus son of Amois has delivered to me an accusation 
charging me with defrauding his son Didymus in connexion with some wheat, I request 
that a copy of this memorandum be served upon his aforesaid son Didymus in order 
that he may have a written notice and appear wherever his highness the praefect Avidius 
Heliodorus holds his auspicious court for the nome or administers justice, and that he may 
attend until the trial takes place so that the facts may be proved. The 22nd year of the 
Emperor Caesar Trajanus Hadrianus Augustus, Mecheir 3. I, Pausiris son of Petsiris, 
have presented this memorandum.’ 


22. The earliest mention of Avidius Heliodorus as praefect has hitherto been in 
March a.p. 139 (cf. de Ricci, Proc. Soc. Bibl. Arch. xxiv. p. 64), and the previous year 
has generally been assigned to Valerius Eudaemon (40. 1; cf. P. Oxy. II. pp. 173-4), 
who was praefect about the end of Hadrian’s reign or early in that of Antoninus, 484 
now shows that Avidius Heliodorus was already praefect on Jan. 28, 138, and it is no 
longer possible to suppose that the date in 287. viii. 7 (@rovs «8 Gcov “ASpuavod Meyelp x, 
i.e. Feb. 14, 138) refers, as we suggested, to the proclamation of Eudaemon. This being 
80, it becomes practically certain that the date in 287. vill. 18 (rous e Oeot AlNiov *Avravivou 
’Enel x’) does, as is indicated by the arrangement in the papyrus, refer to the proclamation 
of Eudaemon, who was therefore praefect on July 18, a.p. 142. This conclusion produces 
a conflict between 287. viii. 18 and B. G. U. 113. 9, where if the editor’s reading is correct 
Avidius Heliodorus is still praefect in the 6th year Pachon 21 (May 16, A.D. 143). 
But the reading of the crucial figure in B. G. U. 113. g is doubtful, and if y be substituted 
for ¢ the whole difficulty is removed and Valerius Eudaemon takes his place between 
Avidius Heliodorus (a.p. 138-141) and Valerius Proculus (a.p. 145-7), being no doubt 


176 THE OXYRHYNCHUS PAPYRI 


identical with the Eudaemon who tried the case recorded in P. Cattaoui iii. 16-iv (Bull. 
del? Inst, dt diritio Rom. viii. pp. 155 sqq.; cf. our revised text in Archiv, III. 1), on the 
3rd intercalary day of the 5th year of Antoninus. 


485. NOTIFICATION TO THE STRATEGUS. 
30-5 X12 cm. A.D. 178. 


Copy of a notification addressed to the strategus by Serenus, a freedman, 
of the fact that he had brought before the archidicastes a claim for the recovery 
of a debt, and that that official had authorized the strategus to forward this 
claim, of which a copy is added, to the alleged debtor—a proceeding equivalent 
to a summons to appear for the trial of the case. Appended at the foot are the 
authorization of the strategus that the claim should be duly forwarded as desired, 
and a corresponding acknowledgement of receipt on the part of the defendant. 
Similar documents are B. G. U. 578 and 614, the legal aspects of which have 
been discussed by Mitteis (Hermes, xxxii. pp. 644 sqq.), and Gradenwitz 
(Einfiihrung in die Papyruskunde, pp. 35 sqq.), and especially 888, the text 
of which admits of several improvements (see the notes below). The dispute in 
the present instance was concerned with a loan of goo drachmae on the security 
of a female slave from Serenus to Sarapias, a woman living at Psobthis which 
we learn from this papyrus was the name of the metropolis of the Small Oasis 
(Bahriyeh). Cf. 592.

said Oxyrhynchus in the past 18th year on the rrth of the month Sebastus, to Sarapias

on the appointed day, instead of the capital sum and any interest that was not paid I and 
my assigns were guaranteed the possession and ownership of her slave Sarapias, then aged 
about 25 years, with the various conditions contained in the loan and the provisions therein 
written for my security concerning the flight or death of the slave. The appointed term 
- having elapsed and the repayment not having been made, I request you to give instructions 
for a letter to be written to the strategus of the Oxyrhynchite nome to present a copy of 
this petition to Sarapias, if she is still living, and if not, then to her heirs being of age,

as her guardian having been (appointed) by the strategus, and wrote for her as she was 
illiterate. I, Syrion, assistant, served the petition npon Sarapias, as aforesaid.’ Date.

614 the copy of the petition to the dpy:d«aorns is headed ypapi xaradolye{ov, indicating the 
Office where it was originally drawn up. In the present case the reply of the dpyidcaories 
to the petitioner seems to have been issued through the same medium. 

7. The letter of the archidicastes is in B.G.U. 578 signed, as here, by two persons 
whose titles are not given; cf. B.G. U. 888. 4, where the corresponding signatory is the

especially 1. 1).

oubtful. 

44-7. The xipus here associated with Sarapias is different from the person who 
acted in that capacity when the loan was contracted ; cf. ll. 52sqq. This circumstance 
explains the statement in ll. 46—7 that the second xupws was assigned ind rot orpanryov. 
For the competence of the strategus in the appointment of guardians cf. 56. 13-5, and 
the Geneva papyrus discussed by Erman in Zeifschr. d. Sav. Sift. xv. 241 sqq. For 
some reason—whether from death or other cause—the original guardian of Sarapias was 
not available, and a new one therefore became necessary. 


180 THE OXYRHYNCHUS PAPYRI 


486. PETITIONS TO THE EPISTRATEGUS AND PRAEFECT. 
34°5 X 26-7 cm. A.D. 131. 


This petition to the epistrategus, enclosing a petition to the praefect with 
his answer, is concerned with the same subject as 472. Dionysia and Sarapion 
had had a dispute concerning the ownership of some land which Dionysia claimed 
to have bought from Sarapion’s father, while Sarapion asserted that she held 
it only on mortgage, combining his claim with a charge of poisoning against 
Dionysia’s mother, Hermione. The matter came before the epistrategus Claudius 
Quintianus, who referred it to the praefect and ordered the rival suitors to 
proceed to Alexandria. Dionysia complied with his instructions, but not 
Sarapion ; and after waiting some time in vain, she petitioned the praefect Flavius 
Titianus to give her permission to return home (Il. 18-36). To this the praefect 
replied by referring her back to the epistrategus, who by this time was Julius 
Varianus (ll. 37-8). Accordingly Dionysia wrote to him re-stating her case, 
and enclosing her previous petition and the answer to it; and reiterated her 
request for leave to return to Oxyrhynchus and for the case to be decided there. 
On the verso in a small cursive hand is the rough draft of another petition 
of Dionysia on the same subject, but too much obliterated for continuous 
decipherment.

II. I8to Of -yevopevov corr. from a. + Of avyrcypadoy corr. from 8. 22. 1. igrocredAopevow ? 


‘To Julius Varianus, epistrategus of the Heptanomis and Arsinoite nome, from 
Dionysia daughter of Chaeremon, her mother being Hermione daughter of Chaeremon, 
inhabitants of the metropolis of the Oxyrhynchite nome. A dispute arose between me 
and one Sarapion son of Mnesitheus, who with regard to a vineyard and some corn-land 
which I bought from his father as long ago as the 11th year of Hadrianus Caesar the lord, 
having paid to his father himself and to a creditor of his the price agreed upon and having 
received the regular official contract of the sale, declared that I held this land on mortgage. 
Claudius Quintianus who was then epistrategus heard the case and referred it to his 
highness the praefect. Thereupon I attended at the praefect’s court, and when my 
opponent paid no attention and failed to appear I presented his highness the praefect 
with a petition, of which I have appended a copy, narrating in full the state of the affair ; 
and he sent me on to you, my lord, to have the case tried. Since my opponent even 
now is absent and the time for sowing is imminent and the repair of what has been swept 
away by the river requires my presence, I beg you, if it please you, to permit me to sail 
back and have the case decided by you on the spot, that 1 may obtain redress. Farewell. 
The copy of the petition which I presented to his highness the praefect is as follows :— 

To his highness the praefect Titus Flavius Titianus from Dionysia daughter of 
Chaeremon, her mother being Hermione, inhabitants of Oxyrhynchus. A _ certain 
Sarapion son of Mnesitheus, of the said city, charged my mother Hermione before 
Claudius Quintianus, late epistrategus of the Heptanomis, with poisoning, and at the same 
time invented a claim with regard to certain property of which he said he was defrauded, 
but which I, Dionysia, bought in accordance with official contracts, having paid the price 
of it to his father when he was alive and to creditors of his said father who held the 
land in question on mortgage; and he asserted that it had been registered in security. 
The epistrategus referred the whole case to your beneficence, and it happened that 
my mother died before the trial, while I thereupon in consequence of the letter of the 
epistrategus ordering me and Sarapion to sail down to Alexandria presented myself here, 
but Sarapion has paid no attention to the instruction to sail down. Since therefore news 
has reached me while staying here that all my property has been lost through the 
excessive rise of the most sacred Nile, both buildings, lands, and dykes, I entreat you, my 
lord praefect, in the continued absence of my opponent, to permit me to sail back in order 
that I may obtain justice (there) and that I may not in addition to the loss of my property 
also perish of hunger, that I may obtain redress. Farewell. The 16th year of Hadrianus 
Caesar, Phaophi 12. (Endorsed) If this is true, petition the epistrategus, delivering (to 
him a copy of this).’

‘To his highness Statilius Maximus, epistrategus, from Nicias son of Harpalus, of 
Oxyrhynchus. The scribe of the city, Serenus, appointed me guardian of two minors, 
sons of Dionysius son of Dorion, aged about 25 years, who neither on their father’s nor 
on their mother’s side had any other persons who from ties of kinship could undertake 
the business of guardianship. Since I am weighed down by my official duties and have 
incurred debts, I request you, my lord, if it please your fortune, to instruct the strategus 
to compel the scribe of the city to appoint some one else in my place to act as guardian to 
the minors, in order that I may be able to attend to the cultivation of my property 
and be enabled to pay the debts to which I have become liable in connexion with my 
office, and that you may not make me an outcast from my property and home, so that 
I may obtain redress. Farewell. The 20th year of the Emperor Caesar Titus Aelius 
Hadrianus Antoninus Augustus Pius, the 18th of the month Hadrianus. I, Nicias son 
of Harpalus, presented this petition.’ 


1. Statilius Maximus is also addressed in B. G. U. 340, which document was written 
probably some years later than the rath year mentioned in L 5, since 487 is dated in the 
zoth year of Antoninus. 

5. dgydixev: that persons aged twenty-five should be still minors is rather remarkable, 
but cf. 491, where the testator provides that his sons should have a guardian until the age 
of twenty and should be unable to alienate their inheritance before the age of twenty-five 
(491. 6, note), and 496. ro.

488. PETITION TO THE EPISTRATEGUS. 
26-5 X 15:5 cm. Late second or third century. 


A petition from a woman whose home was in the Apollonopolite nome 
and who had bought some land in the Antaeopolite nome. The scribe of the 
local komogrammateus, the official specially concerned with the land-survey, 
had entered her purchase in the survey-lists at more than an aroura in excess 
of the correct amount, and the petitioner appealed to the epistrategus to set 
matters right. On the verso in a different hand is a message, probably written 
in the office of the epistrategus and apparently directed to a local official of the 
Antaeopolite nome, which calls attention to the petitioner's claim. The petition 
has been gummed on to another document on each side; the beginnings of 
a few lines of the right-hand one are preserved.

‘To his highness the epistrategus Julius Julianus, from Senphibis daughter of 
Thortaeus, with her guardian who is her son Psais the elder, son of Lemos, from the 
village of Ibion Nemna of the lower toparchy of the Apollonopolite nome. I bought, 
my lord, a long time ago from Apollonius and Didymus, both sons of Origenes, of 
Lycopolis, 54 arourae of corn-land in the holding called the Diagraphe in the lands of the 
village of Krikis in the Antaeopolite nome. But a certain Artemidorus, scribe of the 
komogrammateus of Krikis, somehow registered me as having more land than I actually 
possess by one whole aroura and more in each year, and in consequence inflicts much loss 
upon me. I am therefore compelled, since the man oppresses me and I am in danger 
of abandoning the (land ?), to take refuge with you, the lord and helper of all, and I beg 
you, if it please you, to order the strategus of the nome to see that the correct registration 
is made of my land in accordance with the securities which I possess, and not to let 
me be falsely registered by the komogrammateus, for last year also he made other false 
entries in his register concerning me besides this, that I may obtain relief. I, Senphibis 
daughter of Thortaeus with my guardian Psais the elder, son of Lamos (sic), have presented 
this petition. 

(Deliver) into the hands of ( ) of the Antaeopolite nome. She accuses the scribe 
of the komogrammateus with making a false entry and requests the correct entry to be 
made...’ 


16. After mapéypayew the scribe began to write a word commencing nm, either jyiy or 
jpeov, but changed it to pe without, however, erasing the initial y. 

17, pig xal mpdés: cf. 68. 24, P. Amh. 79. 32, &c. 

22. Neither yj, ol|xiay nor xr}jow suits the vestiges and spacing. 

37. The name of an official would be expected, but nothing is lost after els xetpas. 

43. The relation of this line to the preceding is not clear. Above the e of pnderds 
is what looks like o, as if the scribe had first written wyd°. The doubtful w of émrexopu(évov) 
may be »; but perhaps pydevis ére(p)xop(évov) ‘if no one objects’ should be read.

489. WILL or DIonysIUSs. 
35°5 X 24:2 cm. A.D. IT]. 


Will of Dionysius son of Harpocration. The testator bequeaths to his 
wife Diogenis an apartment rent-free in a house belonging to him, together with 
the furniture of the whole house and his slaves. After the death of Diogenis 
the whole property is vested in their son, who presumably was to inherit during 
his mother’s lifetime whatever was not expressly reserved for her, though this 
is not definitely stated. The papyrus is dated in the reign of Trajan, and the 
number of the year, which is lost, can be fixed by the occurrence of the title 
Parthicus, which was assumed by that emperor in his 2oth year. On Aug. 
27, when the papyrus was written, Trajan had, as a matter of fact, been dead 
about three weeks. This and the following wills, except 494, are written across 
the fibres of the papyrus ; cf. 588, 684, and 646-52. The seals of the testator 
and witnesses were attached to the outside of the roll, but these have not been 
preserved ; cf. P. Tebt. I. 104 introd.

‘The roth year of the Emperor Caesar Trajanus Hadrianus Augustus, the sth inter-

This is the will made in the street by Eudaemon son of Thonasuchis son of Thonis, 
his mother being Thaésis, of Oxyrhynchus, shrine-bearer of the most great goddess 
Thoéris and of Isis ... and the other gods of the temple at the village Mouchinor, 
being sane and in his right mind. So long as I survive I am to have power over my own

sons Thonis and Horus and Eudaemon, all three sons of Ta... daughter of Harpaésis

of all the buildings, estates and slaves that I may leave, but Thonis alone of all... what-

proved against me and gives to his brothers Horus and Eudaemon, if they have at the

old, then to each of them when he has completed the 20 years, 500 drachmae, making 
for both of them together rooo drachmae ; and it shall not be lawful for the said Horus 
and Eudaemon nor for any one of them to sell, mortgage or otherwise dispose of what 
will come to them from me until each of them has completed 25 years. And if I die 
before the said Horus and Eudaemon have completed 20 years, their brother Thonis 
and their maternal grandfather Harpaésis also called Horus son of Thonis shall be 
guardians of each of them until he completes 20 years. If any of the three sons 
happen to die childless his share shall belong to his surviving brothers equally; beyond

indeed be read, but there is then no room for «ai. 

6. efoot érn: cf. ll. 7 and g. But though Horus and Eudaemon were to enter on 
possession of their inheritance on reaching 20 years they were not to alienate any part 
of it until 5 years more had elapsed. There is, however, a discrepancy here between the 
body of the will and the signature, where it is stated (Il. 16) that the brothers were to 
remain under tutelage till the age of 25. This difficulty might be evaded by supposing 
that péxps 8 rére refers back to «ray x in |. 14, but that is certainly not the natural 
interpretation. Possibly therefore eixoos (wévre) should be read throughout. 20 is the 
age when the period of tutelage terminated in another case (495. 10), but in 487. 5 we 
find a guardian being appointed for youths of 25.

In this will Thatres daughter of Ammonius leaves as her heirs two half-

of the brothers is expressly excluded from a house which formed the principal 
item in the property.

493. WILL or PASION AND BERENICE. 
1I+3 X 25°9 cm. __ Early second century. 


The following will is peculiar in being a joint deed by a husband and wife, 
who both have property to dispose of. The beginning is lost, but the remaining 
clauses suffice to show that the survivor of the two was constituted the heir 
of the other, with power to divide the whole property among the four children 
of the marriage; but the wife is, in the event of her outliving her husband, 
expressly authorized to retain the ownership if she chose to do so. The papyrus 
was probably written in the reign of Trajan or Hadrian.

Eudaemon also called Amois, son of Amois son of Sarapion, Apollon son of Diogenes

494. Wit or ACcUSILAUS. 


39 X 23°2 cm. A.D. 156. 


This long papyrus, which is in an excellent state of preservation, gives 
a copy of an elaborate and more than usually interesting will. The testator, 
Acusilaus, after conferring freedom upon five of his slaves, ‘in consequence 
of their goodwill and affection,’ leaves his son Dius heir to his property, subject 
to a life-interest reserved for Aristous, the wife of Acusilaus. The document is 
not the original will, but an official copy made at a later date; cf. 1. 25, note. 

A noticeable palaeographical peculiarity in this papyrus is the sigma, which 
is of a square shape, consisting of two horizontal strokes joined by an upright 
one with a slight inward curve to the right.

‘Copy. Inthe roth year of the Emperor Caesar Titus Aelius Hadrianus Antoninus 
Augustus Pius, the 30th of the month Germaniceus, at Oxyrhynchus in the Thebaid ; 
for good fortune. This is the will made in the street by me, Acusilaus son of Dius 
son of Dionysius also called Acusilaus and of Dionysia daughter of Theon, of the city 
of Oxyrhynchus, being sane and in my right mind. So long as I survive I am to have 
power over my own property, to make any further provisions and alterations I please 
and to revoke this will, and any such provisions shall be valid. But if I die with this 
will unchanged, I set free under sanction of Zeus, Earth and Sun, for their goodwill and 
affection towards me, my slaves Psenamounis also called Ammonius and Hermas and 
Apollonous also called Demetria and her daughter Diogenis and Diogenis, another female 
slave of mine. I bequeath to my wife and cousin Aristous also called Apollonarion, 
daughter of Heraclides son of Dionysius also called Acusilaus and of Herais daughter 
of Alexandrus, being well-disposed and showing entire faithfulness towards me, all that 
I may leave in the way of furniture, effects, objects of gold, clothing, ornaments, wheat, pulse, 
produce, and all my household stock, and my debts, recorded and unrecorded. I leave 
my son Dius by my aforesaid wife Aristous also called Apollqnarion, if he lives, and if not, 
his children, heir to all the property that I leave and to my other slaves and the offspring 
that may hereafter be born to the female slaves aforesaid; but my said wife Aristous 
also called Apollonarion shall have during her lifetime, after the taxes are paid, the 
use of and all the revenues from the whole property, together with the service of and 


| eee ——eel 


494. WILLS 205 


profits from those of them who are to receive their freedom after my death. My said 
wife shall supply to my son Dius every month at Oxyrhynchus for his sustenance and other 
expenses two artabae of wheat by the measure used for payment...and 60 drachmae 
and for clothing 200 drachmae yearly. My said wife Aristous also called Apollonarion 
shall have the right to sell and mortgage on her own authority anything she chooses 
of what I leave to my son Dius in property and slaves and to use for her personal 
requirements the money accruing from the sale or mortgage. My said wife Aristous 
also called Apollonarion shall pay all the debts that may be proved against me; and 
my wife, and after her death my son Dius, shall give to my slaves and freedmen for 
a feast which they shall celebrate at my tomb on my birthday every year 100 drachmae 
of silver to be spent. Anything that I append to the official copy of the will, whether 
cancelling or supplementing or making bequests to other persons or with any other 
purpose shall also be valid as if contained in the actual will; beyond this no one shall 
have power to disobey it, and anybody who does so shall forfeit to the party abiding 
by it the damages and a fine of 2 talents of silver and to the Treasury an equal sum, 
the above provisions remaining none the less valid. This will is valid. I, Acusilaus 
son of Dius the aforesaid, have made this will, the whole of which with all the above 
provisions is in my own writing. I am 48 years of age and have a scar on my right foot, 
and my seal is an image of Thonis. I, Didymus son of Onnophris also called Chaeremon 
son of Herodes, of Oxyrhynchus, one of the witnesses to the above will, recognized my 
own seal which is a figure of Hermes and sealed with the said seal.’ There follow similar 
signatures of three other witnesses, whose seals represented respectively Sarapis, Apollo, 
and Heracles. 


5-6. ind Aia I'v “HXwov: cf. 48. 6, 49. 8; another instance of the manumission of 
a slave by will is B. G. U. 326. 17. 

21. The word after id:o» could not be read as xp[¢jos, even if this were otherwise 
suitable. y«{p\is would be possible, though not very satisfactory. 

25. tnd rd éxddotuov: exddoysa are mentioned in 84. ii. 6, where the keeper of the 
‘Nanaeum’ is ordered not to give them without authorization from the Library of 
Hadrian :—é émernpnri{s|] rod Navalov plore ra édxddousa biddro pyre én{sloxeyarba émi{rlperéroo 
pyrie G\Ao re olxovopeirw mpiv air@ émoreAAn ria xr.A. There the éxddoma appear to be 
Official copies of the deeds deposited in the archives; and in the present passage (cf. also 
495. 15) the word has the same meaning, as is indicated by the contrast drawn between 
the exddoiuov and the actual &a6nxn. It is indeed most probable that this papyrus was 
itself an éx3doipor, for it is stated to be a copy and yet is signed by witnesses, who state 
that they had recognized the seals which they had affixed to the original document. We 
must then suppose that testators were permitted to use such official copies of their wills 
for the purpose of adding codicils without being put to the trouble of withdrawing and 
cancelling the original deeds. This however was of course sometimes done ; cf. 106-7, 
which refer to the absolute revocation of wills. 

27. as éy rH OF ws €v avr ti Would be expected but was certainly not written. The 
phrase recurs in 495. 16, but in a mutilated form. 

31. Gdmos: the mythical guard of the Canopic branch of the Nile; cf. Hdt. i. 114-5. 
Probably *Evxavywrov in 684 refers to him. 

38. ’Ogupvyxirav: this is an early example of the form ‘O¢vpvyyirév médts which is 
not found in common use before the third century. 478, 2 is in fact the only other 
instance in this volume. 


206. THE OXYRHYNCHUS PAPYRI 


44. mpoleréOn, if correct, presumably refers to the publication of the contents of the 
will after the testator’s death; but the note may merely record the date at which the present 
copy was made. Perhaps map'eré6n, ‘deposited,’ should be read. 


495. WILL cr PETOSORAPIS. 
9°7 X 34 cm. A.D. 181-9. 


This will is much mutilated, but possesses an interest as a specimen from 
a somewhat later period than that to which the preceding group belongs; and 
its general tenour remains fairly clear. The testator Petosorapis leaves as his 
heir in the first instance his son Epinicus, a minor; and appoints his sister 
Apollonous to administer the estate, and take charge of Epinicus until he reached 
the age of 20 years. It may be inferred that the mother of the boy was 
either dead or had separated from her husband. A certain part of the property 
is appropriated to Apollonous herself, who was to pay the testator’s debts ; 
and the stipulation is made that she should not be asked to render an account 
of her trusteeship. A minor legacy was apparently made to a nephew of 
Petosorapis.

208 THE OXYRHYNCAUS PAPYRI 


(.) CONTRACTS. : 


496. MARRIAGE CONTRACT. 
2x 75-5 cm. A.D. 127. 


A contract of marriage between Sarapion son of Eudaemon and Thais 
daughter of Sarapion, written on the recto of 34, the important edict of Flavius 
Titianus concerning archives. The ends of the lines, which are of extreme 
length, are lost throughout the papyrus, which has also suffered considerably 
from decay and discolouration; but the lacunae can almost always be restored 
by the aid of 265, 497, and the FayQm contracts at Vienna and Berlin, and the 
sense is seldom in doubt. The result is a practically complete specimen of an 
Oxyrhynchus marriage contract of this period; the provisions have a general 
resemblance to those of documents of the same class from the Fayfm, but there 
are marked differences of formula. The chief clauses are :—(1) specification 
of (a) the dowry of Thais, comprising various articles of jewelry and dress and

drachmae, and 1860 silver drachmae, the total value of the whole dowry being 4100 drachmae 
of silver of the Imperial coinage. Besides this the grandmother of the bride, Thais daughter 
of Sarapion and Heraclous, of the same city, with her guardian who is another son of hers 
and the full brother of the giver of the bride, Sarapion son of Sarapion, acknowledges 
in the same street that she has given away Thais in marriage, and she confers upon the 
said Thais (the possession of the slave) Callityche and her future offspring, the services of 
and the profits from her to be shared by the husband with the bride so long as they live 
together; and it shall not be lawful for the husband to... the slave without his wife’s 
consent nor anything that is brought to him by his wife, nor to sell or mortgage or 
otherwise dispose of his property namely a house, yard and court and its fixtures and his 
slaves Sarapous and Nicarous and the children of Nicarous, Sarapous and Cerdon and 
Epicharmus, and the future offspring of them or ethers, or any additional property which 
he may acquire, without the consent of the bride. Let both live blamelessly together, and 
the husband shall supply the bride with necessaries in proportion to his means; but if any 
difference arises between them and the bride wishes to separate from her husband, as 
soon as the separation takes place the bride shall withdraw the slave Callityche and the 
children that may be born to her, and the husband shall repay to the giver of the bride 
if he survives, and if not, to the bride herself, the 4100 drachmae of the dowry within .. days 
from the day on which they are demanded or forfeit this amount increased by one half... 
And if the bride is at the time of separation in a state of pregnancy the husband shall 
give her on account of the birth 60 drachmae more. When they come together may they 
enjoy health; but if either husband or wife should chance to die, the husband shall have 
power over his own property to make any further provisions he pleases and to divide 
it among whom he will; but if he makes no further provisions the property shall after 
his death belong to their children. If the husband dies first the bride shall have... 
and she or her nearest relation on the one part and whoever shall be appointed by the 
husband on the other part shall together be guardians, the children being brought up with 
their mother until they come of age. If the husband appoints no guardian for the one 
part of the guardianship the bride or her nearest of kin shall act alone, and no one shall 
be permitted to deprive her of the guardianship nor any part of it. If the bride dies first 
without their having any children or when those that have been born have died childless, 
the husband shall repay the dowry namely... the 4100 drachmae of silver in 60 days 
and shall send to the said relations of the bride all the rest of her property. Similarly 
if the husband dies first without their having any children or when those that have been 
born have died childless, the bride shall. ..and withdraw the slave Callityche and the 
children that may be born to her, and until she has recovered them she shall have control 
over the whole property, and with regard to all the provisions the choice shall rest with 
the bride to have either if she prefers the aforesaid gold ornaments included in the dowry 
at the same weight or their equivalent value, and the bride and her agents shall have the 
right of execution upon both the husband and upon all his property in accordance with 
their agreement with each other. The certifier of both parties is Diogenes son of Hierax, 
scribe, of the same city, in the same street.’

are accounted for by the articles of dress and 1800 were paid in money, leaving 1680 to 
be accounted for by the value of the jewelry. Since a pvauiov contained 16 rérapra (9. 
verso 16), the items in 1. 3 make 4 pemaia 13 réraprae + the number of rérapra in the 
ddvoidioy, A pvaaioy of gold is converted into 288 silver drachmae in C. P. R. 12, and 
at the same rate 1680 drachmae would represent 5§ pxaaia. If the figure lost in 1. 3 
before #]uov was 8éca (no higher figure is possible), the total weight of the jewelry was 
Sie ee. The difference is due to variation either in the rate of exchange or in the 
weights, : 
6. rv (8é) Sovdeiay: in the translation we have supposed that the genitives Kad\cr Wyn 
x.r.A. depend on a word like xupeiav lost at the end of 1. 5, but rjv dovAciay may be the 
word on which they depend (cf. 489. 8), in which case a relative (ds or 4) must be supplied 
in the lacuna before cuvéfe in |. 6.

407. MaRRIAGE-CONTRACT. 
ITS X 14:1 cm. Early second century. 


Contract of marriage between Theon and Ammonous, written in very long 
lines across the fibres of the papyrus, probably in the reign of Trajan or Hadrian. 
Though a mere fragment of the whole contract, the sense and construction 
are intelligible throughout, for the missing portions at the beginnings of the 
lines can be largely restored from the other Oxyrhynchus marriage-contracts 
of this period (265 and 496), and the Ptolemaic marriage-contracts from the 
Faydm (P. Tebt. 104 and Archiv, I. p. 484). At the end are the signatures of 
the bridegroom and the bride’s father, and of a third person who seems to have 
been concerned in receiving the dowry, but whose relation to the contracting 
parties is obscure.

498. CoNTRACT WITH STONE-CUTTERS. 
17-8 x 8-7 cm. Second century. 


A contract by which two stone-cutters agree to supply the stone required 
for building a house at Oxyrhynchus at different prices according to the size 
and nature of the stones. Food was to be provided for them while they were 
engaged upon the work, and wages were guaranteed to them if their services 
were required by the builders, but the ornamentation of the stone is excluded 
from their duties. The stone was to be brought from the ‘northern quarry,’ 
which is still a noticeable feature a little way to the north of the site on the edge 
of the desert. The papyrus supplies several new technical terms connected with 
stone-cutting.

‘Copy. To Antonia Asclepias also called Cyria, through her guardian Apollonius, 
from Asclas son of Alexandrus and Apollonius son of Amois, his mother being Tauris, 
both of Oxyrhynchus. We undertake to cut the squared building-stones transportable 
by camel (?) from the northern quarry required for the house of you, Antonia, in the 
quarter of Pammenes’ Garden, the rate of wages for the stone-cutting being for the outer 
squared camel stones at 4 drachmae for 16, for the inner ones at 4 drachmae for 30, 
for ayr:SAnpata at 3 drachmae for roo squared camel stones, and for oblong corner-stones 
at 8 drachmae for 16 outer squared camel stones and at 8 drachmae for 30 inner squared 
camel stones, and for chipped squared camel stones at 4 drachmae for 50 and for 
chipped oblong squared camel corner-stones at 8 drachmae for 50. All the aforesaid 
stones we will cut, but no ornamentation shall be required of us. Each of us shall 
receive for each day that he works both a loaf and relish. If the builders have need 
of our services in stone-cutting, we or one of us will provide them, each of us receiving 
as wages for each day’s services 4 drachmae, and likewise each of us on each day a loaf 
and relish. Until the 2and of the present month Epeiph you have the right to transfer 
to others this contract for cutting the aforesaid squared camel stones from the northern 


qualry ... i 


8. xapndtxay: the adjective is new. The point of it seems to be that the stones were 
not to be too heavy for a camel to transport them. 

16. [djvriPAnparay: these stones being the cheapest were presumably the smallest, and 
may have been used for inserting in vacant spaces between the larger ones.

218 THE OXYRHYNCHUS PAPYRI 


On the verso 
‘ArroAAwvio(v)

5. 1. Mépop, 10. € Of emexadapou corr. from a. 


‘Tryphon son of Aristandrus and Sarapion son of Herodes, inhabitants of Oxyrhynchus, 
have leased to Apollonius son of Horus, of the village of Senepta, Persian of the Epigone, 
for the present 6th year of Hadrianus Caesar the lord from their property at the said 
village in the holding of Dion the 104 arourae upon which corn has been grown, of which 
the adjacent areas are on the east the land of Didymus, on the south that of the aforesaid 
lessors, on the north the same, on the west the land of Seuthes son of Potamon, which 
land is to be cultivated with grass for cutting and grazing at a rent for each aroura, 
without a survey being made, of 36 drachmae of silver, guaranteed against all risks, the 
taxes upon the land being paid by the lessor, who shall be the owner of the crop until 
he recovers the rent. If this lease is guaranteed, the lessee shall pay the rent in the month 
Pauni of the said year and shall forfeit any arrears increased by one half, and the lessor 
shall have the right of execution upon the said Apollonius and upon all his propert 
as if in accordance with a legal decision.’ Date and signature of Sarapion. :

115. introd. 


17. pnSepsas yeoperplas yerouerns: the point of this clause is that 10% arourae were 


accepted as the accurate amount of the land, and there was to be no fresh survey which, 
if it brought out a different figure, might affect the rent to be paid. 


500. Lease or Domain LANp. 
26X9°7 cm. A.D. ¥30. 


An application addressed to the strategus of the Athribite nome by a number 
of persons who wished to lease jointly, for one year probably, some domain land, 
offering a higher rent than that paid by the former lessees. Cf. 279, a similar 
application addressed to the basilico-grammateus, C. P. R. I. 32, 239, B. G. U. 
640, and P. Brit. Mus. 350. The papyrus has been gummed on to a series 
of documents, and is numbered at the top 13.

11—2. The genitives in these lines probably refer to the previous lessees; cf. 279. 8. 
a[. tJov8aie|» seems to be the termination of a compound word expressing a particular class 
of Jews. There is room for one or two more letters in the lacuna before eipy{yujérwy, but 
the writer frequently leaves spaces between words. In 1. 12 the termination -:re» of 
hiporotray suggests a place-name. 

13. Sqpoci(as) yas: in Ost. I. p. 646 Wilcken adopts the explanation of ‘public land’ 
proposed by Viereck (Hermes, xxx. p. 119) that it means land belonging to the commune 
(‘Gemeindeland) as opposed to Saou yj ‘domain land’; but in Archiv, I. p. 157 he 
speaks of P. Brit. Mus. 335, which is an application for a sub-lease of dnpoola yn, as 
if that papyrus referred to ‘ Domanialland,’ i.e. as if 8ypocia yj were the same as Bacsuxy. 
There is, we think, no doubt that the first theory is incorrect. The use of 8npdous in papyri 
in connexion with Adyos, tpawe{a, and yewpyds, where it corresponds in the first case to 
Kaioapos or xupiaxds (cf. Ost. I. p. 645) and in the other two to Saoiuds, renders such 
a contrast between 8npdows and Saciixds as is required by Viereck’s theory very improbable. 
When we hear of land belonging to a ‘ Gemeinde,’ as e.g. in P. Gen. 16, C. P. R. 39 and 
41, it is never called &pooia, but land ard rot wodcrixod Adyou OF ris kodpns. These instances 
all belong to the third or fourth century, and it is not at all likely that there were enough 
‘Gemeinden ’ previously to account for the frequent mention of &8npocia yq before the reign 
of Septimius Severus. It is far more probable that 8nyécws in the phrase dnpocia y_ has 
the same meaning as in the phrase 8nydcwos yewpyds (cf. P. Brit. Mus. 256 (e) 1-2 8npoctos 
yewpyois els ty yewpyovot Bacthun}[»] cat lepdy wad éréplay yqiv) and, that dnpooia yA included 
Baoidie} yj, without however superseding the older term in the manner in which the Roman 
dnpoola rpdme{a superseded the Bacidsx) rpame{a of the Ptolemies. The evidence on which 
attempts have been made to draw a real distinction between 8npocia and BacwAu) +77 is 
extremely slender. In B. G. U. 560. 21 8npooia and ovctaxy yq are coupled together, but 
there &npocia in the sense of the Crown lands of the Ptolemaic kings makes a better contrast 
with estates acquired by the Emperors from private persons than 8pocia in the sense of 
‘Gemeindeland ’ ; and it is quite uncertain that the SaciAcc}) 7 mentioned two lines later 
is intended to be distinguished from the previously mentioned 8npooia, B.G. U. 188. 
23, where the editors read vy «A(npovyxlas) Ba(osdcxijs) 8n(pooias), if 8n{pooias) is right (which 
is extremely doubtful ; 8n{pociw»), sc. for the 8npudor, is preferable), would rather tend to 
show that anyocla yj coincided with Sac than that it was something different. In 
B. G. U. 285 where arourae &npociov are distinguished from arourae BaciA(ejs), it is 
not certain that land at the same village is meant, nor is it at all clear that dnpyociov is 
there feminine, as would seem to be the view of the maker of the index to B. G. U. 
Under these circumstances we abandon the view expressed in P. Fay. Towns 88 introd., 
since there is no reason for departing from the natural meaning of 8yydotos at this period 
or for regarding &8nyooia yj as anything but a general term for land belonging to the 
State, i.e. the imperial domains *. 


1 Cf, also the recent discussion of Sypocla yi in Festschr. su O. Hirschfeld, p. 140, by P. Meyer, who 
comes to the same conclusion as that expressed here.

14. érdOparos: for this word in the sense of ‘higher bid’ cf. P. Amh. 85. a1 and 
Wenger, Archiv, II. p. 61. 

16. @aorov: the supposed o both here and in L 27 is somewhat different from the 
form of that letter employed elsewhere in the papyrus. In the present passage Gwirou 
could equally well be read, or possibly ©Gorov, but in 1. 27 neither of these forms is 


possible. 
26. The termination of the village-name is very cursively written, and might be -xov 


or pov. 


501. Lease or Lanp. 
29°6 X 7-2 cm. A.D. 187. 


A brief description of this lease of a half share of five arourae in the 
Oxyrhynchite nome from Heraclides and Sarapion, acting through their guardian 
Hermes, to Harmiusis was given in Part I. 166; but since the formula presents 
some novel features both with regard to arrears of rent from the preceding 
lease and the use of the word 6éua (cf. 516-8), we give the text here in full. 
The papyrus is in the Bodleian Library, MS. Gr, class. c. 47 (P).

‘Heraclides also called Diogenes and Sarapion also called Diogenes, both sons of - 
Diogenes and ex-gymnasiarchs of Oxyrhynchus, and however they are styled, through 
their guardian Hermes, have leased to Harmiusis son of Heras and Taphibis, from 
Tischinakitoou, for four years dating from the present 27th year out of their property 
at Taampemou in the holding of Philonicus and Charas a half share of five arourae and 
the vacant spaces, owned by them in common with Demetria daughter of Antimachus with 
respect to the other half; to be sown and cultivated in each year the half with wheat 
and the other half with green stuffs, at the fixed rent for the said half share in each year 
of the four years’ period of 8 artabae of wheat on deposit and 40 drachmae. And the 
lessee acknowledges that he owes to the landlords arrears upon the said land for the 
past year 3 artabae of wheat, which he will pay as a deposit in the present year together 
with the deposit of the rent, guaranteed completely against all risks. If in the succeeding 
years any of the land becomes unirrigated, an allowance shall be made to the lessee, 
the landlords being responsible for the annual taxes upon the land and retaining the 
ownership of the produce until they have recovered their yearly dues...’ 


16. xAwpois: i.e. ydpros and dpaxos chiefly; cf. P. Tebt. I. pp. 563=4. 

18. dv Géyars: i.e. the corn was to be deposited in the State granary to the credit of 
the lessor ; cf. 516. introd. . 

34-41. Cf. the parallel passage in 101 26-34, which is somewhat more detailed. 
The meaning is that the lessees actually paid the 8nyécua to the State, but a corresponding 
deduction was made from the rent. ay in 1. 37 is perhaps do[nAdpacs, in which case idias

to Ptolema daughter of Theon, of Antinoé, through Iulas son of Didymus, by adoption 
son of Demetrius also called Apollonius, of Oxyrhynchus, for one year and six months 
dating from the rst of the current month Phamenoth of the present 4th year of the lords

adjoins the house and the other fixtures and the entrance and exit, at a rent for the 
premises leased of 200 silver drachmae a year. If the lease is guaranteed the lessee

which she fails to deliver and any arrears of rent increased by one half, and the lessor shall 
have the right of execution upon the lessee and upon all her property, the lessor being 
liable for the police-tax and brick-making tax. This lease is valid. The 4th year of the 
Emperor Caesar Marcus Aurelius Antoninus Augustus and the Emperor Caesar Lucius 
Aurelius Verus Augustus, Phamenoth 5. I, Apion also called Dionysius, have been 
registered as my mother’s guardian, and have leased together with the above-mentioned 
premises the chambers in the court. The same date.’ 


37. tdpidv al Sdpov: the genitives depend loosely upon An»cts, as if pera had been 
written. 

43- vAderpov xal mdwhevoperns: the form qvAaxrpoy for the police-tax is also found 
written out in P. Cairo 10429 (Goodspeed, Univ. of Chicago Decennial Publications, V. 
No. 10), where it is coupled with Aacypadia. mAwGevouévy (cf. 574) is clearly also a tax, 
and probably the payments imép rAw& ) in some Theban ostraca of the second century 
(Wilcken, Os¢. I. p. 280) are to be identified with it. It was very likely a payment in lieu 
of providing so many bricks to the government and may well be a variant for the »avBrov 
tax, on which see P. Tebt. I. p. 337. The fact that in one of the ostraca the tax tmép 
sige ae eae is calculated upon the aroura would be in keeping with such a view. In 
the Fayfim the manufacture of bricks seems to have been a government monopoly ; cf. 
P. Fay. Towns 36. introd.

504. CONTRACTS 227 


504. SALE or CaToecic Lanp. 
33°2 X13°5 cm. Early second century A. D. 


Contract for the sale of 6% arourae of catoecic land in the Oxyrhynchite 
nome for 1000 drachmae, the seller being Aphroditous, a freedwoman, acting 
with her husband Adrastus as xvpios, and the buyer being Flavius Apion. The 
adoptive mother of the seller, Thaisous, who seems to have had some rights 
of ownership over the land, appends her consent. The formula of the papyrus 
differs somewhat from that found in similar contracts from the Arsinoite and 
Heracleopolite nomes (e.g. C. P. R. I. 1 and 6). The contract is dated in the 
third year of an emperor who was probably Trajan or Hadrian, and is written in 
a small cursive hand with several mistakes of spelling and grammar. Cf. 688.

This draft-agreement, in which the names of the principal parties are not

a representative to collect a debt owed to him at Alexandria. The debt having 
been paid in the meantime, the writer now limits the duty of his representative 
to issuing a receipt for it. For contracts appointing representatives cf. 94, 97, 
and 261. The document is written on the verso of 507.

record-office here as my representative to collect from Gaius Memmius Cornutus also 
called Polydeuces, who is at Alexandria, my share of the sums owed by him to my said 
father’s heir, his nephew Heraclides also called Amoitas, but it happens that I have been 
paid the debt in full. I acknowledge that the contract of representation has been made 
with you for the sole purpose of your issuing a receipt to the officials without receiving 
anything, and for cancelling the mortgage, because I have, as aforesaid, already received 
the money as stated in the autograph receipts which I have issued, and I make no 
claim on any matter whatever.’ 


"=~g. The relationship of the different persons mentioned in this contract is rather 
difficult to make out, especially owing to the omission of the names of the principals. 
Apparently the father of the man who speaks in the first person had bequeathed certain 
sums owing to himself at his death to his nephew Heraclides with the stipulation that 
half of them was to be paid to his son. rod atrov in 1. 8 refers to the father (of res), 
whose name would be given in the actual contract. droid in 1. g also refers to the father.

518. RECEIPT FOR SALE OF CONFISCATED PROPERTY. 
34:2 11-7 cm. A.D. 184. 


An acknowledgement from Diogenes to Serenus of the receipt of 705 
drachmae 3 obols 3 chalci. This sum had been paid by Diogenes to the State 
in A.D. 181 as the price (including extra payments) of some confiscated house- 
property, which had been sold to him by the strategus at an auction. Two years 
later however a much higher bid for the property, amounting to three times 
that of Diogenes, was made by Serenus, to whom it was assigned by the 
dioecetes, the arrangement of the strategus being thus overridden. In the present 
document Diogenes acknowledges that he has been repaid by Serenus the sum 
which he had expended on the purchase. The papyrus throws some interesting 
light upon the methods of the government in dealing with confiscated property, 
and incidentally provides important information with regard to the banks at this 
period ; cf. notes on Il. 7 and 37.

Epeiph 4, executed ...’ 


1, [@vdaléalAldocewos é xa} [’AAakets: cf. 1. 52 and 477. 7-8, note. It is curious 
that the father of Diogenes belonged to a different tribe; cf. 1. 48 Zworxdoptos 6 cal 
’ANGauts. Since the Phylaxithalassian was in all probability an Alexandrian tribe (cf. 
Kenyon, Archiv, II. p. 78) it is most likely that the Sosicosmian was also Alexandrian. 

4. anpdrey ris duoccnoews: the present passage serves to explain B. G. U. 18, a papyrus 
which caused Wilcken some difficulty; cf. Osé. 1. pp. 505-6. The év amparas tmapxovra there 
were no doubt, as here, confiscated land and houses, and the commission appointed by the 
basilico-grammateus was limited to the assessment (cvvripnoacda B. G. U. 4; cf. 1. rz, 
here) of this particular kind of property and has no reference to a valuation of private 
property in general, The cuvripnots was a kind of reserve price serving as a basis for 
higher offers; cf. the distinction drawn in 500. 13-4 between the regular rent of 8npocia yj 
and the éridepa or increase. 

11, The vestiges of the first word would suit [dp|xtyeo[plyod; cf. 477. 4. But we 
hesitate to introduce that rare and curious title here, especially as rerapr] is quite obscure. 

12. For éropévey in connexion with the purchase of confiscated property cf. P. Amh. 97. 
14. We explained the érdueva there as referring to the mpdécodes, or yearly payment to the 
State, mentioned in. P. Brit. Mus. 164. But it would also be possible to refer the éndpeva 
to the mpocdkaypapdueva and réxos which are added on here in ll. 14 sqq. to the original 
600 drachmae of the curriznois. The spoodiaypapépera here amount to 63 per cent. on the 
600 drachmae. : 

16. réxov: though Diogenes bought the property in Hadrianus (Choiak) of the 
22nd year, he seems not to have paid the purchase price until towards the middle of 
the 23rd year. Hence the necessity for interest. 

37. Goxodoupévov dvi ris... rpamé{ns: this passage which clearly indicates that the 
bank at the Serapeum was farmed out by the government throws quite a new light upon 
the relation of the State to the banks in the Roman period. From Rev. Laws lxxiii sqq. 
it was known that under the Ptolemies the banks other than the Baovse«al rpdwefae were 
farmed out by the government; cf. Wilcken, Os/. I. p. 635. But in the absence of any 
indications in the Roman period that the banks called by names of individuals were 
anything but private banks, it has generally been supposed that the bank-monopoly 
enjoyed by the Ptolemaic government had been abolished (cf. of. cz#. p. 647). But it is 
clear that in the case of this bank at any rate the privilege of administering it had to 


514. RECEIPTS 249 


be bought from the government ; and it is noticeable that in 91. 8 sqq., written four years 
later than 613, émrnpnrai of the bank at the Serapeum are mentioned, and the Epimachus 
who issues the trdoyeors (91. 11) is probably identical with the Epimachus here. Since 
émrnpyrai are commonly found in connexion with avai (of. ci. p. 599), the two papyri 
point to the same conclusion, and raise the problem how far the banks which are simply 
called by the name of an individual were really private. The bank at the Serapeum 
is mentioned in previous reigns (cf. 98. 8, 264, 7) under the names of differént persons, 
and more probably they were either the aoyoAuvpevos or the émrnpyrai of it than the owners. 
If this be granted, the persons who elsewhere give their names to banks may well be 
to a large extent, if not wholly, in the same position, and the condition of the banking 
business in the Roman period would not differ very much from that in the Ptolemaic. 
One change however can be traced; the &poota rpdre{a plays a less important rdle in 
Roman times than the Baoscxy rpdme{a had done previously, for most private trans- 
actions were in the Roman period conducted through the i&wrixal rpamefa (cf. 305), whereas 
under the Ptolemies the existence of banks other than SacAccai is only known from the 
Revenue Papyrus. A tax called rpan(e(crixdv?) occurs in 574, being perhaps a charge for 
the maintenance of the official banks. 


514. Receipt FOR SALARY. 
6-4X 12 cm, A.D. 190-1. 


A receipt for an éyevov of 400 drachmae, addressed to two collectors of the 
corn-revenues by an unnamed person who was very likely a otroAdyos, since 
he undertakes the registration (xaraxwptopds) of the account-books; cf. 516. 
The writer has made so many erasures and interlinear additions that the con- 
struction is in parts obscure. The papyrus was written in the 31st year of 
Commodus.

in the records various account-books of these officials. Cf. P. Amh. 69,

their account-books with certain officials appointed to take them to Alexandria.

516. RECEIPTS 25r 


Dionysius, ex-sitologus of the M... district, greeting. There has been registered with us 
through the scribe Apollonius on Phamenoth jo of the 18th year of Hadrianus Caesar 
the lord the detailed list for each sitologus-district of the supplementary payments of

district and by Heraclides for the Sink... district the monthly summary for Mecheir, 
and by Chaeremon and Papontos only for the Monimus district both the monthly summary 
for Phamenoth and the secondary detailed list of receipts. Signed by me, Theon, scribe.’ 


2. Leryr( ) rén(wr): no doubt identical with Swx( ) in 517. 6. 

Mep{ ): the second letter is more like », but the » above the line is fairly certain, 
being just like the second » of Moviy(ov). 

3. Apollonius was probably the scribe of the sitologi, since the scribe of the ABrodi- 
Aaxes, who appends his signature at the end, is called Theon. 

7. peraddyw(v): this word, which is new, would seem to be connected with the phrase 
pera Adyow which occurs in Fayfim tax-receipts (cf. P. Fay. Towns 53. 2-3, note), and 
to indicate a second tax-list giving the details of the individual payments, as contrasted with 
the py»aioy which only gave the totals. 


516. ORDER FOR PAYMENT IN KIND. 
18-3 X 9-1. cm. A.D. 160. 


Authorization addressed to the sitologi by Dionysius, a victor in the games 
and late exegetes, for the payment to Apion of a quantity of wheat. 619-32 
are a series of similar notices to the sitologi, another specimen of which is 88. 
These diacrodixd (cf. 533. 4) appear to be, so far, peculiar to Oxyrhynchus ; 
and clearly indicate that the sitologi, besides receiving dues to the government, 
undertook the storage of grain for private individuals, the public granaries thus 
presenting the closest analogy to the public banks. The correlatives of these 
orders on the sitologi are found in the receipts issued by them stating that 
a certain payment had been made,e.g 517-8. Those two documents are clearly 
concerned with private transactions, notwithstanding the opening formula pepé- 
tpy(yras) els rd Snudowoy; and they show that caution must be exercised in the 
explanation of other sitologus receipts from the Fayim and elsewhere, which 
need not refer to payments to the government of rent or taxes in the absence 
of an express statement to that effect. Cf. also 601. 18, 24, 26, and 583. 24.

520. AccouNT OF A SALE. 
22:4X 17 cm. A.D. 143. 


Report of a sale of articles from a miscellaneous store (aayroméAcov) be- 
longing—or lately belonging—to a man called Chares. The fact that the report 
is rendered to three overseers (éairnpnral) and that the result of the sale was paid

been confiscated by the government, and sold by auction. For ézernpyraf in 
this connexion cf. B. G. U. 49. 5 émer(npnrijs) yevnu(aroypadovpevwr). The account 
was originally glued on the left side to another document, now lost.

Statuettes or shrines of Isis, Osiris, and Harpocrates are mentioned, and the list 
perhaps refers to the property of some temple; cf. the mention of idéra: (?) 
in 1. 10. This supposition is strengthened by the contents of a fragmentary 
account on the verso in which occurs a payment of 800 drachmae yeve|o(w(v) Oeod

6. Evdopaicxtoy is a new compound. 

II, 25 artabae seems rather an incongruous item, but we can find no alternative. 

13. BadAXos occurs in Suidas, but the meaning was unknown. L. Dindorf remarks 
(ap. Stephanus s. voc.) nist potius nomen est proprium factum a Babws ...corrupium vidert 
potest ex Badmos. The present passage disposes of this criticism by showing conclusively 
that SadaAAos means a vessel or instrument of some kind, in this case made of iron, and 
Mr. Smyly is no doubt right in identifying it with the Latin deA2/um or dbatillus, ‘ shovel’ ; 
cf. the mention of ‘tongs’ («apxivos) in 1. 14. 

18. d8pqv is for b8peioy. 

22. yadaxro| is probably a compound word meaning a receptacle for milk; it recurs

Price of 2 jars expended upon us alone from Phamenoth 27 to Pharmouthi 15 16 dr. 
2 obols. Expense of... together with the price of oil for the same period 8 dr. 4 obols.’ 


1. Triadelphus, like Horion son of Ammonius and Pausiris, was probably the owner 
of an drécrodov. The payments in ll. 2 and 14, which are at the rate of slightly more than 
r obol per artaba, seem to be the charge for transport to the vessel’s destination, probably 
Alexandria. Why in the first case there was an extra payment (I. 3) of 4 drachmae per 
1000 is obscure. The calculation of the 712 and 12 dr. is not quite accurate. The 
correct figures would be 714 and 13%. 

4. e€ace: if this word is not corrupt, it would seem to be a technical term connected 
with the fuller’s trade. 

6. orp(arimry) : for soldiers accompanying the corn-vessels as émimAoo: cf. 276. 9. 

11. The figure after &» rd (fusov) has not been filled in ; cf. ll. 23-5. 

15. vavrix(ov): this if correct means a payment to a vavrns. Perhaps vavrix($) 
(masculine) should be read. Horion ‘the pilot’ is probably different from the Horion in 
L 12. 

18. dor(wr?): cf. 498. 31, &c. 

21. wapa rd (qpuov) (dprdBns) is very obscure. The order is in favour of constructing 
it closely with dsyp(e)rotvr(s), and against making it mean ‘in addition to the 4 artaba 
received by the workman.’

therefore do not appear. The latter complains of the trouble he was having 
in going by river past the Antaeopolite nome, and instructs his correspondent 
to make a certain payment.

Serapeum.’ 


4. oolyBdpov: cf. 610 and 101. 19, where in a lease 12 drachmae owovdjs are an item 
in the rent. An additional payment of some kind is there meant, but the precise signific- 
ance of the word is not clear. In 653 cwovdy is coupled with amépoipa and égapovpiop, 
which suggests that the charge ‘for a libation’ was primarily imposed upon vine-land (cf. 
Rev. Laws xxxvi. 19, where the gern, i.€. amdpoupa, is devoted el[s] r[jv] Ovoiay xalt] rqv onjoly-

526. Letrer or CyRILuus. 


16:2 X 11-9 cm. Second century. 


This letter is badly written and obscurely worded, and the writer was 
evidently a person of little culture. It contains a brief apology for a departure 
occasioned by the desire to recover a loan.

for your health and prosperity. (Addressed) Deliver to Heras.’ 


6. The round bracket at the end of this line (cf. critical note) appears to indicate 
a wish on the part of the writer to cancel the first érei yap... xaréyo, which is superfluous; 
but he should have been more explicit. 


528. LETTER oF SERENUS.

This curious and amusing letter, written in very bad Greek, is from Serenus

writer wished to return.

weeping by night and lamenting by day. Since we bathed together on Phaophi 12, 
I never bathed nor anointed myself until Athur 12. You sent me letters which would have 
shaken a stone, so much did your words move me. Instantly I answered you and gave 
the letter sealed (to the messenger) on the rath, together with letters for you(?). Apart 
from your saying and writing “ Colobus has made me a prostitute,” he (Colobus) said to 
me, “ Your wife sent me a message saying ‘ He himself (Serenus) has sold the chain and 
himself put me in the boat.’” You say this to prevent my being believed any longer with 
regard to my embarkation (?). See how many times I have sent to you! Whether you

580. LETTER or DionysIus. 
19-8 % 12:2 cm. | Second century. 


A letter from Dionysius to his mother Tetheus, chiefly concerned with 
money matters. The writer states that he has paid certain taxes, while some 
others for which his mother was being troubled had been omitted by an over- 
sight ; and he announces the dispatch of 112 drachmae, 108 of which were, to be 
devoted to the redemption of his wardrobe from the pawnbroker. The letter 
is written in a well-formed uncial hand with occasional lapses into cursive. An 
example of 2 formed with three distinct strokes occurs in |. 13.

‘Dionysius to Tetheus his mother, greeting. I have received all the letters concerning 
which you write, and with regard to the wheat which the collectors have demanded from 
you it is admitted (?), but I had forgotten to make any order for payment; I have 
however paid in full the naubion and other taxes. Do not be concerned that the matter 
about which I wrote to Theon has not been carried out and that I have so long been 
engaged with Pausirion’s business to no purpose ... Please receive from Chaeremon 
the bearer of this letter 112 drachmae of silver of which you will give to my friend 
Sarapion son of Apei roo drachmae and redeem my clothes, with 8 drachmae on account 
of interest, and keep 4 drachmae for yourself for the expenses of the festival. If I had had 
more I would have forwarded a further sum; I have borrowed to send even this. So pay 
him the money and get my clothes back safe, and put them in a secure place. Do not be 
anxious about us, for there is nothing the matter with us and we are at harmony with each 
other. Theonas salutes you. Salute the boys Apion and his brother Hermatois, Dionutas, 
those with Nice and the little Thaisous, all those with..., Heras and his household, 
Leontas the proud and his household, those with Taamois, and Thermoutharion. Good- 
bye. The 2oth of the month Caesareus. (P.S.) Send me word about this immediately 
after the festival, whether you received the money and whether you recovered my clothes. 
Salute Dionutas and Theon. (Addressed) To my mother Tetheus.’ 


4. Spdr[oyo]: it is difficult to see what other supplement can be found for the lacuna, 
in which there is not room for more than four letters; of mvpoi is probably the subject 
rather than of mpdxropes. For duddoyos in connexion with the poll-tax cf. note on 478. 22.

you and all those with you. Regarding the man about whom you write to me so often, 
claim nothing until I come to you auspiciously in company with Vestinus and the donkeys. 
For if the gods will I shall arrive quickly after Mecheir is over, since at present I have 
urgent affairs on hand. ‘Take care not to offend any of the persons at home, and give 
your undivided attention to your books, devoting yourself to learning, and then they 
will bring you profit. Receive by Onnophris the white robes which are to be worn with 
the purple cloaks, the others you should wear with the myrtle-coloured (?) ones. I shall 
send you by Anoubas both the money and the monthly supplies and the other pair of 
scarlet cloaks. You won me over by the dainties, and I will send you the price of these 
too by Anoubas; until however Anoubas arrives, you must pay for the provisions of 
yourself and your household out of your own money, until I send you some. For the 
month of Tubi there is for yourself what you like, for Phronimus 16 drachmae, for 
Abascantus and his companions and Myron g drachmae, for Secundus 12 drachmae. 
Send Phronimus to Asclepiades in my name, and let him obtain from him an answer 
to the letter which I wrote to him, and send it. Let me know what you want. Good-bye, 
my son. Tubi16. (Addressed) To my son Hierax from his father Cornelius.’ 


15. poupcivey: pupoivwy seems to be intended, but pépiwor (‘ mulberry-coloured ’) occurs 
as an epithet of a covBpixordAXuov in C. P. R. I. 27. 8, and may be the word meant here. 

18. The punctuation and meaning of this line are a little difficult. Of the known 
meanings of ¢fa\Adooew that of ‘amuse’ seems to be the most suitable and we refer rovroy 
to the éydpie, making it depend on riyjv. If rovrwy is connected with éfpdAafas it must 
refer to the cloaks, and the sentence means that these were in exchange for the dyapua. 

19. For pévrovye as the first word of a sentence cf. P. Amh. 135. 11, where a comma 
should be placed after avam\civ.

‘Apion to his son Apion and his dearest Horion, many greetings. Before all else 


I pray for your health and for that of your children and wives. All that I wrote in the 
other letter, in order that I may not repeat it, consider that I wrote also to Horion. 
I have sent you by Eutyches of Ision Tryphonis 3 orders for payment, two for the 
cultivators of Maximus, the third for Diogenes son of ... Issue them at once before 
Phaophi that they may not be later than the due time. Others were sent to Panechotes 
the lawyer; get these from him and pay him 64 drachmae. Sell the grass-seed and ask 
... whether he wants the man from Tampitei. Let my revenues which are paid through 
the cultivators either be placed on deposit at the store-house or be kept in safety in the 
possession of the cultivators, in order that if the gods will, we may, if they are neglected, 
have no complications with our adversary, or the cultivators must bear the risk. Do not 
lease the house of ...to any one except to a woman who intends to live in it, for it is 
(wrong) to expose such a house to youths, that we may not be caused vexation and 
annoyance. Tell Zoilus the cultivator from Sento that in accordance with the agreements 
he must look after the money. Tell the twins also to be careful about the small change, 


and 


likewise tell Apollonius and Dionysius if you can send to Paberke in the eastern 


toparchy to Pausiris the donkey-driver, that, as they arranged, they are to pay me the jars 
of wine and must keep their pledge. Get from Harthonis the priest the 20 artabae of 
wheat, and from Zoilus the cultivator from Sento the 5 artabae of wheat which he borrowed 
from me. Look out at the office of the strategus a letter of the dioecetes written in the 
month of Thoth about the substitution of other names for mine in drawing lots for the post 
of collector. Tell Serenus at the camel-shed that he is to take care of the money. Tell 
Hermias, scribe of the collectors of money-taxes at Ision Panga, that he is to issue an order 
for the wheat which he owes me or for the amount which he approves. Let Heraclides 


5388. PRIVATE CORRESPONDENCE 273 


son of Hermaiscus pay the 6 artabae of wheat on deposit. Tell Dionysius son of 
Epimachus, ex-chief-priest, that I petitioned the dioecetes about the revenue in order that 
a reduction might be made in the fine of Sarapion son of Phanias. Salute Statia my 
daughter and Heraclides and Apion, my sons. Salute little Serenus and Copreus and all 
our household individually. Amarantus and Zmaragdus salute you. I pray for your 
health. (Addressed) Deliver to my son Apion and Horion.’

The remains of the date show that the trial took place before the end of 
the reign of Antoninus Pius, and the praefecture of L. Volusius Maecianus, 
which has been the subject of much dispute (cf. P. Meyer, Hermes xxxiii. 
p. 262 and Stein, Oesterr. Sahreshefte ii, Beiblatt Col. 107 and thid. iii, 
Col. 222), therefore began before May A.D. 161. The supposed praefecture 
of Postumus (B. G. U. 388) in A.D. 161 may now be finally dismissed 
(cf. P. Meyer in Bestrdge zur alten Geschichte 1. p. 478), but some doubt 
is thrown upon the date assigned by De Ricci (Proc. Soc. Bibl. Arch. 1902 
p. 65) and P. Meyer (I. c.) to the praefecture of T. Furius Victorinus, since 
the praefecture of L. Volusius Maecianus may occupy the whole period 
between the praefectures of M. Sempronius Liberalis and M. Annius 
Syriacus. 29 lines.

EGYPT EXPLORATION FUND. 


GRAECO-ROMAN BRANCH. 


HE EGYPT EXPLORATION FUND, which has conducted Archacologtcal research 

in Egypt continuously since 1883, in 1897 started a spectal department, called the Graeco- 

Roman Branch, for the discovery and publication of remains of classical antiquity and early 
Christianity in Egyfl. | 

The Graeco-Roman Branch issues annual volumes, each of about 300 quarto pages, with 
Jacsimile plates of the more important papyrt, under the editorship of Drs. B. P. GRENFELL 
and A. S. Hunt. 

A subscription of One Guinea to the Branch entitles subscribers to the annual volume, and 
also to the annual Archaeological Report. A donation of £25 constitutes life membership. 
Subscriptions may be sent to the Honorary Treasurers—for England, Mr. H. A. Gruxser ; 
and for America, Mr. F, C. Foster.
